5523...Dear Abby,Dear AbbyYou Won't Believe This

With apologies to the greatest U. S. Postal worker ever, John Prine, I share the news I heard on CFRA, that being that Dear Abby is no more.

"Pauline Phillips, who created the iconic advice column Dear Abby, has died at the age of 94 in Minneapolis, the Associated Press reports."  Her identical twin sister Esther was Ann Landers, her number one rival in the advice business.

Back in the day Dear Abby was in 1,200 papers a day and had a reach of 100,000,000 people.

She was 94.
