Curly Howard (nee Horowitz) was just abo0ut the funniest person who ever lived. Years ago my son, Loinfruit, gave me the complete Stooges collection for Christmas.

I spent all day trying to get Delores, Pierre and Harold to behave. I’m going to change my name to Buddy B. DeMille. Those of you who aren’t in the motion picture business like moi have no idea how difficult it is to contend with petulant superstars.

By the way, when I was young I was pretty athletic myself. But I couldn’t play sports because I was blind as a bat. 20/600 in my right eye and 20/400 in my left.

…here’s a newspaper article from about 30 years ago. The newspaper was in Chester, PA. don’t be confused about the Delaware County Daily Times. Chester is in Delaware County Pennsylvania. The team played from 1920 through 1931.

Howdy, Folks! Ready for the big game? My old man played football back in the 1920’s. He was pretty famous in Chester PA. Never wore pads. He painted his bare legs to look like he was wearing a uniform. My Uncle Chisel was halfback and my old man, also Bud Grace, was quarterback.

That’s him in the front row with his legs painted. Uncle Chiz is top right. That’s a tough looking bunch, and the Bald Headed Nine were tough indeed. More maybe tomorrow.

Still getting by. Still no Covid shot. I thought we old guys were first in line. I’ve talked to several people who are hesitant or just plain adverse to getting the vaccination. You would think there would be some juice left over for U No Hoo. I hope that all of you who wanted to be vaccinated either have been or will soon.
