A friend of mine sent me this, hope you enjoy:
Veteran Pillsbury spokesman, Pop N. Fresh, died yesterday of a severe yeast infection. He was 71. Known to friends as "Brown-n-Serve," Fresh was an avid gardener and tennis player. Fresh was buried in one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent years.
Dozens of celebrities turned out including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Aunt Jemima, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Skippy.
The graveside was piled high with flours as longtime friend, Aunt Jemima, delivered the eulogy, describing Fresh as a man who "never knew how much he was kneaded."
Fresh rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes -- conned by those who buttered him up. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was a roll model for millions. He enjoyed being prodded by his many friends who invariably poked fun at him.
Fresh is survived by his second wife. They have two children and another bun in the oven.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
This little story has been around the Internet for at least 10 years. My Dad created Pop'n Fresh back in the 60's.

Your father created Pop'n Fresh?! Wow! I adored him as a kid and dreamed of tickling his tummy. Very clever eulogy - but what happened to his "first wife"? Did she leave him for someone with more dough?
Never heard that joke before, so darn cute and funny, and spuddysmom that was a good one! That is what we need a joke section, and this joke was a good one to start it off, that way when things get heated up in these forums we can switch and get the joke/jokes of the day to calm us down.
