I forgot to post this earlier but...in the end of "Breaking the Lease" and Desi is singing that song...watch when he's singing, at one point he sticks out his tongue, does he always do that when he sings??? I thought it was something else maybe someone hadn't noticed before.

I dun't know if i understand you correctly, but to us, there is nothing worse than hearing an English person roll their R's when speaking French, it emphasizes their accent! I did love his Irish brogue though in that barbershop quartet, although Bill didn't. The look on Bill's face when he hears Ricky singing with the Irish accent is priceless!

Well, Desi wasn't English and never spoke French.Even though he said he had Irish descent on him with just a little BIT of Cuban

If he had Irish descendents, that was some commute they had! Didn't he say a few French words while in Paris, or dueling with that Frenchman?

With the Frenchman while Lucy was in jail there was a German translator,a French and a Spanish. So funny! With the duel guy it was all 'ANGLAIS"..but probably he said a OUI here and there sometime:lol:

Did you know that THAT was a famous BLOOPER? It was after they saw the show that they reealized that they had used California wine and back then, they said in New York, they wouldn't have had those.

Bad propman, maybe he was drinking the one that was supposed to be on the table in the first place:lol:

No, everything was NO FRILLS back then, so the prop man had gotten California wine for the scene and never even thought that they were supposed to live in New York. Wasn't there a great story about the prop man in Desi's book? That these people were asking who did this on the show, and he answered Lou, and then they said what if this happens, and he answred Lou would take care of it and so on for hours, so finally, these people who wanted to know the reason behind the success of the show just said, ok we get it now, all we have to do to duplicate it is hire this Lou character!:lol:

Thanx Lodee. *;)* And who ever asked "When did they do it, I didn't see it...watch as begins singing and he looks back to the right {it looks like he is looking at the harp (or the lady in front of the harp :rolleyes: )} then he turns and looks back to the left and when he faces forward again he swings out his tongue. You might have to put it in slow motion to catch it.

Desi also had a twitch in his eyes sometimes; probably it transfered to his tongue there :D

the eye bone connected to the tongue bone . . .

Do you think if this was natural or he was just pretending?:lol:

I think it was just an odd habit he had. I've noticed that eye twitch thing too. That I don't think he could help. My eye has done that before. It feels weird!
