I hate those FWD emails. You know the pass 'em alongs. So I never pass them along. And I very rarely open or read them. But I got this one from "Jill" today and am glad I took the time to read it. So glad, in fact, that I thought I'd post it here and share with y'all.
Sad PassingA culinary moment... Enjoy
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. Born and bread in Minnesota, 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, three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey 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.
Hoo hoo. (That's the supposed to be the Pillsbury Doughboy stomach poke noise.)

haha! very funny. Also, I was looking at your "Eeee!" photos and I love that you still have the sandlot boy on there. Also, the pic of rob. pat. next to the birdcage is probably the ONLY attractive photo i've seen of him.
In my defense, I KNOW you hate the forwarded emails....and I refrain from sending them to you. This was totally an accident and I blame Qwest for changing their email format.
