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 
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.
