All Alone

Here lies Desi Arnaz, in the ground all alone
His wife sick of hearing, "Lucy, I'n hone!"

Sweet; loved the "I'n hone' which is exactly how he said it. Lucy was a knock-out! But Desi was the wisest of the wise when he insisted on filming everything with double-expensive film that lasted forever.

Thanks for the feedback, especially for the information about the double-expensive film. ~ Gershon

They were a great pair for many years but sadly his drinking and infidelity ended things. He was never as great again. You nailed it Gershon! : )

Thanks for further insight into that odd couple---odd, at least back then, for a Cuban. to be married to a white woman... Ever notice that Desi always said, "I'n hone," instead of 'I'm home" when he entered their apartment on the show?! Thanks for the support, Connie! :) gw
