Gadzooks! It steams me up... when false rumors get passed around on Free Republic!

Me, too, Bendy-- Let's... kick some ass!

Yvonne could not... have passed away--

We played golf... just a few days ago--

And, Bendy dearest, your were more... than up to par!

And if I recall correctly, last Monday we... were at the beach--

Yes, and I invited you to climb all over... my Jungle Jim.

And the week before, we went... skiing--

And I just loved the ski outfit... you bought me!

Yvonne, Bring me... a light for my cigar--

Can do, just as soon as I... dry off.

And last night didn't we... go dancing with Travolta--

And be both... out danced him!

You know, Yvonne, all this action... has me kinda tired out--

Well then, come... to bed.

Well, night... y'all!

For the life of me, I cannot see what... Bendy sees in her?

Now, now, Kitty-- Don't be green... with envy--

Or I'll be force to show you... how to skin a cat!

Green Alien chicks.

Lethal, but what a way to go...

And another one from the Golden Age is gone.

Thank you, Yvonne.

Damn. Condolences to her family & friends.

The surfing-beach party Bat Man episodes are my favorites.

Batman " What a way to go - go."

R.I.P. Yvonnne. Batgirl was my first favorite female crime fighter. Then Jaime Summers the Bionic Woman and then Wonder Woman Lynda Carter and then Buffy Summers - Sarah Michelle Gellar. Never watched Xena.
