The Associated Press, Monday, August 20, 2012, 3:38pm (PDT)

A selection of comic lines from Phyllis Diller, who died Monday at age 95:

— "I once wore a peekaboo blouse. People would peek and then they'd boo."

— "I never made `Who's Who,' but I'm featured in `What's That?' "

— "When I told Fang I was going to have my face lifted, he said, `Who'd steal it?'"

— "You know you're old when your walker has an airbag."

— "I was the world's ugliest baby. When I was born, the doctor slapped everybody."

— "They say housework can't kill you, but why take the chance?"

— "I became a stand-up comedienne because I had a sit-down husband."

— "My vanity table is a Black & Decker workbench."

— And actor Dylan McDermott shares this line via Twitter: "One time she came over with a 70-year-old guy. Told me she was `robbing the cradle.'"
