The Pillsbury Doughboy...

[SK2005]

Dear Friends:
It is with the saddest heart that I have to pass on the following news.
Please join me in remembering a great icon. Veteran Pillsbury spokesperson, The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a slightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, Captain Crunch, and many others.
The graveside was piled high with flours. Longtime 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 many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, as he wasted much of his dough on half-baked schemes.
Despite being a little flaky at times, even as a crusty old man he was considered a roll model for millions. Toward the end it was thought he'd rise once again, but he was no tart.
Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. They have two children and one in the oven.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

I wish, no unfortunately I didn't. However, I think that I could come up with something like this.

As Homer would say: DOUGH! As for Doughboy, he should have learned to roll with the Pins. Rye he had to die, I donut know! It seems that he was a real PITA and a salt charges were constantly leavened at him but they came up flat. What's a matzo? You don't believe him? He was never a crumb and neither did he waffle in his onions, he was often pen-sieve and very well bread. Not always what he was crakered up to be, most thought he was a wheat fellow, and they surely broke the mould after they created him.

Sorry, it was the best I could do. Maybe I should just baggette?
