August 20th, 2012 – Phyllis Diller.

I was one of zillions who grew up laughing our hearts out at Diller during a Bob Hope special or a Dean Martin roast or a Tonight Show appearance. Her laughter, alone, is legendary.
Phyllis Diller overcame a ton of mess to be the hilarious person she was. If you get a chance read her book of her life, please do. It is an amazing story of finally taking control of one’s life and reaching levels that seemed impossible.
Here’s a link to get a copy. The book is light reading with somber and hilarious stories.
