Found this article in today's LA Times...

Critic's Notebook: Phyllis Diller was completely and inarguably herself
  By Mary McNamara, Los Angeles Times Television Critic


I love Phyllis Diller, and I refuse to change the tense of that emotion with her passing because the love is most certainly still alive.
I love Phyllis Diller because she was hilarious, because she did stand-up before it seemed women were legally allowed to do stand-up and because well into old age she could still rock a mini-dress.
But most of all, I love Phyllis Diller because she was the first woman I ever saw who clearly and joyfully and consistently simply did not give a damn.

About what men thought, about what women thought, about what anyone thought.She inevitably looked like a Barbie doll left out in the backyard during a rainstorm followed by a drought, sounded like she had consumed a pack of Camels and six highballs for breakfast, and she owned the joint.  ;D


There's more to the article if you wanna read it.
