OT: A funeral was held today



For those who have longed for the good old days where we always had
fresh bread on the dinner table, I thought you would join with me in a
moment of silence.

The funeral

It is with the saddest heart I pass on the following. Please join me
in remembering a great American icon. The Pillsbury Doughboy died
yesterday of a yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes
in the belly. .. He was 71.

The 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 and long time friend Aunt
Jemima delivered the eulogy, describing 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 never considered a very "smart" cookie,
wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes.

Despite being a little flaky at times, even still, he was a crusty old
man and was considered a roll model for millions. Toward the and, it
was thought he would rise again, but alas, he was no tart.

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.
