>  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 gravesite 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 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.
