....or at least make you feel old. The premiere episode of I Love Lucy is now as old as Bill Frawley was when the episode first aired. The Battle of Argonne during WWI mentioned in "Quiz Show" would now be 1982. Fred's sweatshirt would now read "Golden Gloves 1971" The "Pioneer Women" bet would now preclude using anything invented after 1964. "Passports" Lucy Ricardo would now be born in the year 1981 (making her 5 when a little thing called "Life with Lucy" debuted) Helen Kaiser, if she is to be believed, was born in 1986 (so how does Helen remember "LWL"???) "Chris's New Years Eve Party" is now longer ago than the very first Chaplin short was when the episode aired. Man landing on the moon for the first time is now longer ago than Lindburgh's flight across the Atlantic was when the Eagle landed. The year depicted in the flashback scene in "Lucy Takes a Cruise to Havana" would now be 1998. The year the story of Wildcat unfolded would now be 1967. "The Good Years" (1900 to 1914) would now be 1953 to 1967. "Mame" is now as old as "King Kong" was when "Mame" premiered. In relation to how old "Yours Mine and Ours" is now, a movie that old when YMO actually came out might have been attended by 9-year-old Lucille Ball. .....and the world keeps a-goin' round!!
