Legendary comedian Phyllis Diller has died at the age of 95, her manager confirmed to ABC News.
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainment/2012/08/comedian-phyllis-diller-dies-at-95/
"her manager confirmed to ABC News."

Well, if her "manager" confirmed it, then it must be true!


He has been sucking her blood for who knows how long?


But, I have a feeling...knowing these people...the blood sucking won't stop.


How did she manage to live that long without any blood left?


Maybe her manager kept her alive with some life-supporting system, so that he can
continue sucking her blood.

She cannot die without her managers okay...

maybe she just ran out of blood and he pulled the plug.

This is an on-topic article.

Then how come we all know about Phyllis Diller?

She made appearances on tv, endlessly at one point. I can't think of any
movie I saw her in. I'm sure they are there, but nothing comes to mind
immediately. It was tv that made her a household name.

Yep, especially Laugh In and late night talk shows. She was in Yours
Mine and Ours with Bob Hope I think, in the 60s or 70s.

For some reason, I did watch a lot of Laugh-In at the time. I was younger
than their intended audience, but while I watched Ed Sullivan, that was
because others wanted to watch it.

I was thinking I could picture her in a Bob Hope movie.

She also went on a lot of Bob Hope's USO christmas tours which were
televised later in the year. They were good friends.

I'm willing to bet some girl told that director to go jump off a bridge and that's what he did!
