October 22 is the porcupine’s boithday!
Spread out, you knuckleheads, & wish CURLY HOWARD a very Happy Boithday!
Woo! Woo! Woo!
Thanks for the post, Bosda (and I hope you don’t mind me shortening your name!). I always thought that Larry was “Porcupine,” but Moe did use those terms interchangeably.
How old would Jerome have been today? I’m guessing probably 100 or close to it. He did pass away while still in his 40s, but it was over 50 years ago. Curly was always my favorite stooge, btw. 
Happy Birthday, Jerome!
So? Click the link. 
Oh, a wise guy.
He’d be 103, you knucklehead.
I use “knucklehead” here as a tribute to Moe Howard, of course, not as a personal insult towards any poster.
I haven’t seen many Three Stooges shorts, but I always loved it when Moe would stick his fist out, Curly would hit Moe on the fist, and then Moe would swing his fist backwards and hit Curly on the head. I don’t know why, but that always struck me funny.
“Ma-ha” “Aha”
RAJA! (Smack!)
Jerome Horowitz had good hair, but was ordered by Ted Healy to shave it off, because he didn’t look any different from the others in the act (Moe and Shemp). So the guy with good hair had to be laughed at for being bald. (Sorta like a skinny guy nicknamed “Slim” putting on 100 pounds from a thyroid condition).
Curly was afflicted with a series of small strokes, which cut off blood flow to his brain. You can see the difference over a couple of years in the mid-1940’s.
My best friend suggested that if they have a Lou Gehrig’s disease, they ought to call that one Curly Howard’s disease.
Curly rules! Quoth Steve Martin: “Comedy ain’t pretty”.
For those of you who need a band or screen name, Moe said his brother’s hair looked like a “dirty tennis ball”.
