Oddity

The Resume

Why she might be annoying:

    If you were a potato chip eater in the Midwest in the 70s and 80s and bit into a greenie, you now know who to blame.
    After retiring as an inspector, she noted 'Every once in a while, I'll comb through the trash bins to see if any good ones have been thrown away. And every once in a while I get lucky.'
    She kept her potato chip collection on a spare bed.

Why she might not be annoying:

    After seeing a 'Ripley's Believe It or Not' about a peanut shaped like a wooden shoe, she called the local paper and said, 'That's nothing, they should see what I've got.'
    Carson kept her on 'Tonight' so long that actress Jennifer Tilly had to be bumped from the show.
    During her appearance, while Ed McMahon distracted her, Carson grabbed a chip from a hidden bowl and bit down, producing a loud crunch. She whirled back with a look of horror on her face until Carson sheepishly brought out the bowl.
    TV Guide named her 'Tonight Show' appearance #1 on their '50 Funniest TV Moments of All Time.' (1999)
