PHYLLIS WE HARDLY KNEW YOU



So, Phyllis Diller has died, which is a great shame.  She was 95, but it’s still a shame.  According to Joan Rivers in Entertainment Weekly the two of them had lunch together just a few weeks back and she was in great form.

In that article, Joan Rivers reminds us, should we need reminding, that Phyllis Diller had the best food one-liner ever: “I like to serve chocolate cake because it doesn’t show the dirt.”  I’m not sure why I find that quite so funny, but I smirk every time I think of it.
