Fisher jokes about Elton John

[Amanuensis]

This morning Fisher played a live concert version of Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and then told about how, starting tomorrow, Ben and Jerrys will be selling, for one week only, a special flavor of ice cream called "Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road" containing chunks of Butter Brickle candy. Fisher then said something about "why only a week?" and observed that maybe he would have gotten better treatment if he had gone to Dairy Queen.

Fisher was making an allusion to the fact that Elton John is gay, and that earlier in his career, he was flamboyantly so, i.e., he was a "queen."
