Dough

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 Hostesss 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 quicky in show business, but his later life was filled with

turnovers. he was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his

own 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 surv ived 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.
