Sad death...


Please join me in remembering a great icon
of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury
Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection
and trauma complications from repeated pokes
in the belly. He was 71.

Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.
Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their
respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry
Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the
Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The
grave site was piled high with flours.

Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly
described Doughboy as a man who never knew
how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose
quickly in show business, but his later life was
filled with turnovers. He was not considered a
very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough
on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little
flaky at times, he still was a crusty old man and
was consid ered a positive roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough,
three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and
Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He
is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.

The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

If this made you smile for even a brief second,
please rise to the occasion and take time to
pass it on and share that smile with someone
else who may be having a crumby day and
kneads a lift.
