I'm guessing I'm the *only* one who hasn't read Desi Arnaz's autobiography?

I was lucky enough to find it several years ago at my college library. I hadn't seen it anywhere else. I have seen it recently at various online bookstores, but they want a lot of money for it. If your town has a good library, see if you can find it there. It's an excellent book.

I can understand the face. You have to keep an open mind when reading the book. By open, I mean not only for his take on things, but for sex and swearing. And if you want the same type of story about the two that you read in Lucy's autobio, don't look too deeply here. It's there, but not as much.

dawsongirl · 08-27-2001, 10:23 PM

Uh, take for instance the stories about the hookers in the brothel in NY. The part where he says something about it was probably not a good idea to go see Polly's (the madam) girls the night he married Lucy could PO a few people. Open mind...
