Guest, Old Bob,
    Thanks for bringing that one back. It was one of the original raps--no tune, just words. I think you left out a frying pan.
   
"You need more than heat, boy, according to Hoyle
You need popcorn, salt, butter and oil
And a frying pan, ot to be completely proper
You ought to have a popper."

    That was my introduction to the phrase "according to Hoyle." I didn;t learn what it meant until many years later.
