Birthday Spotlight: Lucille Ball

A century ago a cheery, red headed, blue eyed, baby girl was born. Well we weren't there, but we imagine that the baby that grew up to be Lucille Ball was cheery. She died in 1989 but somehow she still lives.

Remember when you were in elementary and they told you the definition of a legacy. Well we do, and we dare anyone to tell us that Lucille lives forever because of her legacy.

We four squirrels were born after her passing, but we know her name. We know her face. We know that we can watch and enjoy her company any day of the week. She inspired at least one squirrel here and several all around the world by showing that a woman could be just as funny, if not funnier, than men.

It's late in the day, sure, but if you find yourself needing a pick me up, allow yourself to enjoy Lucy with modern age technology. We love youtube just as much as we love Lucy.

Happy Birthday Lucille!
