        Sorry, Sam.  I think I was unduly influenced by the fact that my
personal source was Chickenman.  The lack of a date for the Ray Stevens
song was a factor too.   Now it looks like this was indeed something
started by Ray Stevens.

Hey!  What am I, chopped liver?  I submitted this when the question was
originally asked but no one seems to care.  I tell you, I get no
respect!
