Quote of the Day

"It's perfectly all right with me. Some of the most gifted people I've ever met or read about are homosexual. How can you knock it?"

--The great Lucille Ball, in a People Magazine interview in 1980.  She was responding to the question, "How do you feel about gay rights?"  Lucy was a gay rights advocate over 30 years ago.  That's just one more reason We Love Lucy. 

She was born 100 years ago today.
