Back in the early 1960s, I was a big fan of the Three Stooges when it was shown on WPIX-TV in New York with Officer Joe Bolton as the host. As time went on, I moved on to other things and lost interest in Moe, Larry, and Curly (Shemp). Some years back Lee began to watch the 3 Stooges on the AMC Cable TV network. To say the least he loved them, but did not outgrow them as I did. Karen taped hours of show for him. We also bought a few DVDs of full lenght movies.
A few months ago Karen saw on article in New York Newsday about the Three Stooges Fan Club and Stoogeum, a museum devoted to the Three Stooges located near Philadelphia. Thre are close to 100,000 artifacts of Stooges memorabilia. I knew that I wanted to go to the American Chemical Society National Meeting in Philadelphia in August. I thought we should visit the Stoogeum on the way. Since a picture is worth 1000 words please see this YouTube video http://youtube.com/watch?v=jIrZiEFyg5s
From there we drove to downtown Philadelphia to Comfort Inn by Penn's Landing right by the Delaware River. I was able to pick up WABC radio very weakly so I listened to Saturday Night Oldies for a short time. I heard the section of Mark Simone interviewing Cousin Bruce Morrow.
