My youth is over, crushed by the weight of real-jobishness, bills, worries, and what-not. As the bell no longer rings for Sally, as the second kid in Narnia no longer can see Aslan in the Last Battle (was that what it was?), as little Jacky Paper has put away the ganja and only sees lighthouses and not dragons, I no longer find the Three Stooges funny. I guess it's time to get a yard, plant some cherry trees, buy a cane, and wait on the porch in a rocker for kids to come astealin'. However, in a strange parallel to Star Wars, I've always known there is another who can keep the Stooge flame lit and inspire others to love the Stooges. Cousin Tyler, he who acted like Curley for like five years...unless, he has been turned by the same forces that have turned me...NOOOOOOOOO!!!
(The real trouble is that the episodes I watched I distinctly remember liking when I was a kid. Anyone else think this is funny? For your sakes', I hope you do)
