Like the Hokey Pokey, I Didn't Realize it Had to be Invented*
In other bad literature news, the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest linked to below in the article on Bovril (essentially beef-flavored hot chocolate), imaginary Nazi flying saucers, and Leo XIII, includes as one of its winners (in 2000) Gary Dahl, the inventor of the Pet Rock.
*In re the hokey pokey (written by British bandleader Alan Tabor), it appears to have nothing to do with mocking Transubstantiation, contra Catholic urban legend. (Remember, the Canon used to be silent, and still is in certain Forms). So, homeschoolers, at your birthday parties, put your left hand in with abandon!
