With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the passing of a very important person which almost went unnoticed last week.
Larry La Prise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully at the age of 93.
The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in, and then . . .
After numerous rounds of, “We don’t even know if Osama is still alive”, Osama himself decided to send Dubya a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.
Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a coded message:
370HSSV-0773H
Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to colin Powell, who had no clue so they sent it to the FBI, who sent it to the CIA, then to NASA and the Secret Service.
None could help, so they turned to Canada’s RCMP who replied to the White House as follows:
Tell the President he is looking at the message upside down.

Funny thing is I can picture everyone cocking their head to read the message upside down. [img]graemlins/lmao.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/lmao.gif[/img]

SQ, you and Sinc should join Peter and I in a vaudeville revival at the "What up Dachs?" Comedy Club.
