Death of an ICON

> 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 the 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 positive 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 father, Pop Tart.
>
> The funeral was held at 350 for about 20 minutes.
>
> If this made you smile even for a brief second, please rise to the
> occasion and take the time to pass it on and share that smile with
> someone else who may be having a crumby day and kneads it.
