Today is the 112th birthday of the actress Vivian Vance. She didn’t make Lucy funny, she made her funnier. She was the point of reference, the voice of reason, the control group with which we were able to judge just how crazy Lucy was. She was doing what we would be doing if we were in the scene: questioning and cautioning, but eventually being persuaded to join in the scheme. The world is a better place because she was in it and still feels the loss that she has left.
