> 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. 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.

> If this made you smile for even a brief second, please rise to
> the occasion and take time to pass it on and share that
> smile with someone else who may be having a crumby
> day and kneads it.
