Gentle Reader, I have a confession to make. I am making this post brief so I will have time to watch the Lucy Show on YouTube. That's right. The Lucy Show. From the Sixties', starring Lucille Ball, Vivian Vance and Gale Gordon. I am revisiting my childhood, thanks to YouTube. I don't watch just anything from the Sixties on YouTube. So far it's just been Perry Mason and now it's Lucy. I don't know why. I couldn't be bothered seeing Bewitched or the Flintstones or Gilligan's Island. I think the first two programs resonated with me when I was a child and I still haven't figured out why. Perhaps because Lucille Ball reminded me of my mother and Perry Mason won almost every case. I was inspired by Perry's integrity and thrilled by Lucy's zaniness.
There is only one cure. Watching it, and watching it and watching it. Until I have run out of episodes, or till I'm sick of it. Or both.
