Kath and Kim summed up Adriana and Wheel of Fortune perfectly

'Wheel's never been the same since Adriana Obscenites left'.

How true a statement. When she left Wheel, Wheel was never the same. She brought charm and class to the show.

RIP Adriana

Here's a clip of when Burgo and Adriana visited the US Wheel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_Kt8X3B ... re=related

I was saddened to hear this. I have fond memories of my grandma getting right into "the Wheel" with Baby John Burgess and Adrianna. My dad thought she was kinda alright too ;) iirc she had quite a sad life and lived with numerous health issues most of her adult life. RIP Adrianna

Could we say that Adriana has finally bought a vowel?

That would be entirely _n_ppr_pr__t_.

Given it was a ruptured intestine that took her, I would presume she needed to buy a bowel.

A private funeral service for Adriana will be held on Friday

Apparantly it'll cost $50 each time a vowel is used :twisted:
