It's not that I'm doubting the occasional sexual aspect of their comedy. I just happen to believe sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

You know what ? I like you. I think we'd be great buddies and I enjoy your comments.
Yes, I agree with you, " sometimes a cigar is just a cigar"
... unless it is placed between two nice, rounded curvy, derbies, or in between two sumptuous, sweet, sugared cupcakes...
(as we know, our heroes loved to throw pies and pastries [pie] ;D). As Moe pronounced it, a " Del-ek-ah-see...".
Who doesn't like a sweet set of round ones ?? ;D
Here's another very interesting use of sexual suggestion that most people don't catch (only the most astute and intelligent Stooge fans have caught this one, or maybe just me ;D). There is a title of a Stooge short, again treading that fine line because the film also happens to be about boxing, called GRIPS, GRUNTS and GROANS !!! ...and the champ's name happens to be Bust Off !!! :D...you can look up, or maybe already know ,the meaning of that phrase within our cherished and ever so classy modern vernacular nomenclature ;D...in short ;D, they had many, many more levels of comedic genius than most people are intelligent enough to realize. Which is o.k., since we have kids watching them, too !! ;D
Lawyer: " Please drop the vernacular !"...
CURLY: "Vernacular ?!! That's a DERBY !!" ;D

I agree that the Stooges work on many levels. I think that's why they have such a wide, long-lasting appeal.

Well stated. ;D

...adults as well as young kids can read into each joke on their level and get an equally enjoyable experience from their respective levels of cognition. I think this, among many other great things, is what makes the Stooges so appealing to such a wide demographic, and for their historically long fame and appreciation by a worldwide fan base. [3stooges] ...Like I said, pure genius... [pie] ;D

OK, I believe this thread's back to "normal." No reason to keep some of it for posterity. I'm usually not a fan of erasing history, but I feel it was warranted in this case. No more talk about "curlydude."
