>SAD NEWS
It is with the saddest heart that I
must pass on the
following news. 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
was
still a crusty old man and was considered a roll model for
millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough, two children,
John
Dough and Jane Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also
survived
by his elderly dad, Pop Tart. The funeral was held at 3:50 for
about
20 minutes.
If this made you smile for even a brief second, pass
it on to
someone who kneads
it
