vivfantoo* Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Ricky: Right now I just want to read the paper. Lucy: Let me read it to you, dear. Ricky: OK. Lucy: Well! How long has this been going on? Ricky: What? Lucy: They're racing little girls down at the track! Ricky: What? You must be mistaken. Lucy: No, it says right here -- 'First race won by two year old maiden.' Ricky: I wouldn't worry about that little girl. Lucy: No? Ricky: No. She's as strong as a horse!

Brock Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Eve Whitney didn't always look like that. How do you know? You only met her last night. Well, I heard her talking to Bill Hall when he cornered her and INSISTED on hearing the "story of her life"! How about that! Wasn't that NAUSEATING?!?!

HarryCarter Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 When you're married, that's the way things are. What do you mean "that's the way things are?" That's what we thought last night and then Eve Whitney walked and suddenly that's the way things weren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Posted February 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 And then the old prune said, 'Either the Ricardos leave this apartment or I do!' Isn't that awful? And Lucy said, 'But Ethel, you can't afford to have another vacant apartment.' And I said, 'Don't worry, Lucy. We can rent that apartment just like that! *snap!* and even if we couldn't, it wouldn't matter because my friendship with the Ricardos means more to me than all the money on earth.' And then she said, 'I'm not the only tenant who feels this way. I advise you to think it over!' and I said, 'Well, I advise YOU to think it OVAH!' and she flounced out of the apartment.

HarryCarter Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I was a record nut. I just loved singing groups like the Mills Brothers and the Boswell Sisters and the Andrews Sisters.
