They love Lucy [impersonator]...

I'm so happy to see Lucille Ball impersonator Suzanne LaRusch in the finals of "America's Next Best Thing" which airs tomorrow night on ABC. I met LaRusch about five years ago when she was part of a glorious "I Love Lucy" attraction at the Orange County Fair. They had replicas of the Ricardo's home and of the Tropicana nightclub. But the best part of it all was LaRusch who we had so much fun with and who remained in the character of Lucy Ricardo the entire time. I've got pictures somewhere but not handy so I'll share with you this clip of her, in action, on the show...
