I’m with you David… I’ve always been stunned by how much people like the Three Stooges. I’d much rather watch Chaplin (I just saw City Lights which had an amazing ending) or the Marx Brothers, or any smarter comedy act.

I for one believe the CNN poll posed a trick question if not at least a confusing one as our three branches of government strongly resemble the three stooges these days.

Well, Jill, Iâ€™m here to tell you that not all guys dig those zany Stooges. Most guys, maybe, but not this guy. Marx Brothers, for sure, but never enjoyed Curly and the gang.

Interestingly, there was a story on CNN yesterday which said that far more people were familiar with the Three Stooges than our three branches of the U.S. government! 74% identified the former, while only 42% the latter. Maybe they should have broken down the results by men and women?

Men like jokes and slapstick better than women

Maybe this explains why all guys seem to love The Three Stooges….
