Typical, can't separate fact from fiction.

Curly Howard:

Born: October 22, 1903 in Brooklyn, New York
Died: January 18, 1952 at the age of 48

Curly Howard's real name was Jerome Lester Horwitz. He was born to Jenny and Solomon Horwitz on October 22, 1903 in Bath Beach, a summer resort in a section of Brooklyn. He was the fifth and youngest of the five Horwitz brothers. Curly's interest in show business grew as he watched his brothers, Shemp and Moe perform as stooges in Ted Healy's act. After Shemp left the Healy act, Moe suggested to Healy that his kid brother Jerome was available and would make an excellent replacement for Shemp.

Curly at the time was known as "Babe." When Babe showed up to talk to Healy to join the act he had long wavy brown hair and a mustache. In order to join the act Babe agreed to shave off his mustache and shave his head. Now referred to as Curly, he joined the team and played with the Stooges in vaudeville acts and comedy shorts for MGM. Later, in 1934, Curly along with Larry and Moe performed in many of the shorts that were produced for Columbia Pictures.

After Curly's first marriage was annulled, he married three more times. On June 7, 1937 he married Elaine Ackerman. In 1938, Elaine gave birth to Curly's first child, a daughter, Marilyn. Elaine and Curly divorced on July 11, 1940 after only 3 years of marriage. On October 17, 1945, Curly married Marion Buxbaum. After a miserable three months of arguments and accusations, Marion and Curly separated on January 14, 1946, and Curly sued for divorce. This divorce was quite scandalous and notices were carried in all the local papers.

It was after his separation from Marion that Curly's health started its rapid decline. On May 6, 1946, he suffered a stroke during the filming of his 97th Three Stooges comedy, "Half-Wits' Holiday" (1947). A year later Curly met Valerie Newman, whom he married on July 31, 1947. Valerie was Curly's fourth wife, and she nursed him through those last, awful years. Valerie gave birth to a daughter, Janie.

Finally, in 1949, Curly's health took a severe turn for the worse when he suffered his second in a series of strokes and was rushed to Cedars of Lebanon Hospital in Hollywood. Curly died on January 18, 1952. He was 48 years old.

 

Ummm no... I give this a massive FAIL!

The stooge billed as Curly Joe was Joseph DeRita-whose real name was Joseph Wardell-was born July 12, 1909, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.Curly Joe Bio



Typical Democrat tactic, make up the facts as you go along...

WHOA! Habbs, pulling a #7 on us or what?

 

Habbi, you are way too kind. They don't deserve what credit you gave them.

If it wasn't for the big banks taking a giant dump on America, I wouldn't care about government and I would not really be looking for some revenge. I just want to be able to sell my house and not lose money.

And another thing, will someone please allow all Marijuana to be legalized? I mean it's hard enough enduring all this pain .

Here is where I stand in a nutshell. If you are against legalizing Marijuana then I hate you and consider you an enemy of the people!!!!!

And that goes for whether you are a Democrat or a Republican.

Still trouble with that fact vs fiction stuff. Nothing in either bio lends credence to your "generous" description. Both seemed like they paid their own way.... but feel free to take poetic license and twist it to suit yourself!

 

Hey, Alex... pot stirring over here is still pot stirring. The point of the politics and religion forum isn't to give you guys a place to continually cause problems; rather, it's a place to separate the 'poo' that a few of you continually spew out of the mainstream flow of the GD forum.

Here's the deal...

If you want to talk politics, go to a Canadian site where some one will care about your opinion on American politics. I'm sick of you continually being a problematic poster here at f150online.com. The point of our forums are not for you to crank up your Kitchen Aid blender and stir...

This, accordingly, goes for EVERYONE... not just Habbi.

You're on the cusp of causing this forum to drift into oblivion and for there to be **NO** religion or political talk, whatsoever.

 

That may be his intended purpose.

 

Is there someone else in this thread named Alex or are you talking to me?

 

Habibi's real name is Alex. That is whom he was addressing.

 

You betcha!!

 

Now that right there IS the funniest thing I've read lately!

I hereby plant daisys and pansies here on top of this thread and I release purty butterflies for everyone.

Edited to add: Hugs and kisses too...

 

I don't know why everyone is getting so sore about it. I got that in an email a few weeks ago and laughed about it...take a joke people!

The Fox news republicans made me crack up!
