I was driving down the highway recently , when an "18 wheeler" passed me. Written on the side of the trailer in big block letters were the words "SUPER SERVICE." I immediately thought of Moe and Curly,( I can't remember if Larry actually says "Super Service" in the short ), in the gas station scene in "Violent Is The Word For Curly", and I just had to laugh and start saying lines to myself. It made the trip more enjoyable. Anyone else have similar experiences re see something stooge related in situations or places you did not expect?

I used to have this pic on my site. It was from our local Daily Times newspaper during campaign season...

I had one of them,...On the way home from school I say a car in front of us all decked out stooge style,..2 stooge liscense plates in the back window, bumper stickers and a liscense plate that read "Stoog1" the works, I laughed when we drove past because I looked over and this guy looked exactly like Larry the hair and all,.. I couldnt help but laugh and think "Theres a future me!"

Stooge Related Sightings

There is an homage to the Stooges in King of the Hill, where they become volunteer firemen, and also one in Pinky and the Brain, where the mice are joined by a third mouse named... Larry.

This is what inspired me to pull the thread from the old joint.

Behold our local newspaper's headline about the result of last night's Phils/Red Sox game.

well, i think this will go here- i was in HOLLYwood yesterday, and guess what set of stairs i came across? pictures to follow.

Cool, Megs! Can't wait to see your pics.

i did some research, and it turns out these are the Laurel and Hardy steps, which are about two miles away from the Stooge steps. i'll get photos of the Stooges next time, darn it.

David

That's ok. I'd like to see those as well. (THE MUSIC BOX is my favorite Laurel & Hardy short.) In the past, I used to think they were the same set of steps used for ACHE, until I was told the difference.

has this been put on here?

Cool video, David. Thanks for posting it.

just saw Shemp (Shemp Howard ... Wacky (uncredited)) in the third "Thin Man" movie, ANOTHER THIN MAN (1939). he doesn't have too many lines, but there he is! always fun to see him appear!

David

Yep, Shemp was all over the place before returning to the stooges.

in the Batman: The Animated Series fourth season episode, "Beware, The Creeper" the Joker has three very familiar, if bulked up, henchmen. they aren't much better in those roles, either!

Cool! Gotta love all the places the boys turn up.
