National I Love Lucy Day

I always loved reruns of I Love Lucy. It was my first introduction to loving women who are crazy. It was also my first introduction to the Cuban accent.

"Why does Mr. Lucy talk funny Dad? Did he have a stroke?"

"He's from a different country son."

"What country is that?"

"Cuba"

"Bless you"

"No son, the island of Cuba. It's just south of Florida."

"Whatever. He should let Lucy into his show. She's funny. Also, how's she going to have a baby when they have separate beds?"

"Oops. Commercial's over. No talking during the show."

I know it was in black & white, but I'm sure Lucy is the reason I have a weakness for Redheads to this day. Happy I Love Lucy Day.
