  • [snickering]  Oh, I do get a charge out of fellow Tarrant county blogger, Middleageguy:

    "I find it kind of interesting that he shares credit for writing The
    Hokey Pokey with two other writers.   Was it really that complicated? 
    I mean, if Rossini could write more than 40 operas, many of which
    lasted more than a month each and involved highly-Italian singers
    belting out notes that could only be heard by certain species of fruit
    bats, then why did it take three people to write "you put your left leg
    in, you take your left leg out?'  Was there just that much debate over which limbs would be included in the song or what?"
