    Maybe it was the thread on the yacht Bread that motivated me to post this. Probably can only be appreciated by those of us Americans with warped humor:

    Sad Passing
    Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. . .

    The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday in Minneapolis of a yeast infection and traumatic 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.

    Born and bread in Minnesota, Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not regarded as 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 served as 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 min.

    If you smiled while reading this, please rise to the occasion and pass it on to someone having a crumby day and kneading a lift.

    That was half-baked, but I served it to my family anyway. A dollup of butter helped. :D

    Good Humor there, Ed - you're a "rising" star. I scream, you scream…forget it, you don't need a job as a comic, I figure you're rolling in dough! :D

    Received by PM from a fellow YFer. You might even be able to guess who sent it. ROFLMAO.

    Q: What do you see when the Pillsbury Dough Boy bends over?

    A: Doughnuts!
