Wow. One of the founding queens of comedy has left the stage, please lower the curtain. http://www.npr.org/2012/08/20/154540372/phyllis-di ller-comedys-self-deprecating-pioneer Got to listen to the story, heard a clip of her delivering those trademark one liners... |

CRAP- I just tuned in too late, but Terri Gross is re-broadcasting an old interview from '89 with her! Hopefully they'll have that back up on their website soon! What a classy lady. Doesn't present that way, but God's honest truth, it doesn't get much better than her. |

Whoops, that was from '86. Wow- I was 19 years young at the time of that interview... Bless her heart, to make it to 95 with that mind and wit! |
