1. I remember one line that she had about Elizabeth Taylor
"She's got more chins than a Chinese phone book!" of course, she doesn't have much room to talk anymore!

3. The Liz Taylor crack I always liked was "When we were young we all wanted to look like Elizabeth
Taylor. Now, God help us, we do."

I don't remember who said it - but it was said during the peak of Liz's weight gain.

5. I take her out to McDonalds just to watch the numbers change...
...What do you want on your hamburger? (Liz replies) A hotdog.

6. She also said Liz was the only one who stood in front of a microwave
screaming 'hurry up'. I remember reading once that Liz wasn't offended by her jokes. I hope that's true.

8. Great line...Joan said she had Liz over for dinner once and Liz
was an absolute doll...then when Loz lost all that weight, she did jokes about how mad she was at Liz...one more month and I woulda had a new hosue (i.e., she got mileage out of all those Liz jokes).

4. My favorite line from her was when she was doing standup.
She had painters in the house painting her bedroom and they couldn't get the color right. She plucked a hair from her head and screeched at them to paint the room 'JUST LIKE THIS'...


They painted the walls a lovely golden yellow and the ceiling black. LOL.

11. Hee-hee...On Joan Collins as Alexis...she's had more hands up her dress
than the Muppets.

Said this when she hosted the Emmys...took a lot of heat later.
