Phyllis Diller is in the hospital. She’s 87. She’s in the hospital. And, by God, if we knew which one, we’d publish the address so you could all send flowers (which, by the way, you all should)! And we are hoping for a full recovery… because she’s Phyllis Diller, that’s why! Reports E Online:

The 87-year-old funnylady remains hospitalized in Los Angeles after tumbling out of bed in her Brentwood home and injuring her head and neck.

“She has a big bruise on her forehead,” manager Milt Suchin tells the Associated Press. “I think she blacked out…She just awoke and a housekeeper came in and found her on the floor.”

Note: She’s reached the status of “funnylady.” That isn’t even a word in the dictionary! She’s a comic in her 80’s— we are all just comics from the 80’s… She deserves our utmost respect! (You’ll forgive us if we’re a little touchy about la Diller– We just suffered through a week of Caroline Rhea jabbering on XMRadio promo spots about how her HBO special might “strike a blow for female comics.”)
