Happy 115th Birthday Jerome Lester Horwitz (Curly of The Three Stooges)
October 22, 2018

Posted on 10/22/2018 4:39:25 AM PDT by lowbridge

Jerome Lester Horwitz (October 22, 1903 – January 18, 1952), known professionally as Curly Howard, was an American vaudevillian actor and comedian. He was best known as a member of the American  farce comedy team the Three Stooges, which also featured his elder brothers Moe and Shemp Howard and actor Larry Fine. Curly Howard was generally considered the most popular and recognizable of the Stooges.

He was well known for his high-pitched voice and vocal expressions ("nyuk-nyuk-nyuk!", "woob-woob-woob!", "soitenly!" [certainly], and barking like a dog), as well as his physical comedy (e.g., falling on the ground and pivoting on his shoulder as he "walked" in circular motion), improvisations, and athleticism.

‘Los Tres Bobos’ remind me of the Dem leaders in Congress. Except the Dems are not amusing.

Interesting life. An introvert off the stage and a handsome man with his hair and mustache.

For me, it's a tossup between these two:

Let's go fishing...
I got the worms...
That's ok, we'll go anyway.

and

Say, toots, meet me down at the gym next to the dumbbells.
I'll be the one with the hat on.

I always wanted one of the sausage grinders that I could pour bullets in and fire like a Gatling gun.
