LSW Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 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. Fresh is survived by his second wife. They have two children and another bun in the oven. The funeral was held at 350 for about 20 minutes.

LSW Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 But I did not write it... typical internet stuff. PS. Orville has a new popcorn, at the bottom of a paper "tub". Nuke it in the Microwave and you have a tub of Popcorn just like in the movies , have not tried it yet... guess it will be a Netflix weekend with a season of "Norther Exposure," it should have a whole new meaning to us now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had those around for a few years in the mid-west. Blockbuster used to sell them... Actually they might still. I haven't seen the inside of a Blockbuster in years...

Andrea Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 .... weekend with a season of "Norther Exposure' date='" it should have a whole new meaning to us now [/quote']I guess it may be "new" to Alaska. We've had those around for a few years in the mid-west. I'd say he means Northern Exposure has a new meaning to him and his family now, that they are living in Alaska - and exposed to those Northern weathers.... Men - no wonder they cannot understand woman; obviously, they don't even understand each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
