> SAD 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 still was 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 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 a smile with someone 
> else who may be having a crummy day and kneads it.
> 
> Happy Thanksgiving & 73,
