this is little ricky

he is supposed to be lucy and desi's baby. he was an ebay find of mum's, but he came with a strange detail. the hand.

here he is saying: "hello mathyld! without you, my story would have been lost."

as mathyld noticed, this *has* to have been an intentional reference to this song, don't you think? why else would his hand have been severed and re-attached, and with big black thread x's on hard vinyl?
