1)- I've gone my whole life not fully realizing that Lou Reed and Lou Gramm are in fact two different people. In my mind, they are the same leather-faced, grumble-throated blond guy who did something rock-worthy in the 80's. For all intents and purposes, my brain will continue to classify them as a singular "Lou".

2)- There are people who actually go to both Oral Roberts (tee-hee) and the comically named Bob Jones Universities. Now anyone named "Oral" is going to garner a few chuckles, but the fact that Bob Jones' url on the web is "BJU" makes me think there's some kind of in-joke within the wacky infrastructures of these establishments. If only they weren't so darn hateful and intolerant!

3)- As far as stooges go, you really can't complain about Shemp. He really made a fine stooge, much more so than Curly-Joe Rita or Emil Sitka. Don't even talk to me about Joe Besser. But here's what I didn't realize: the Moe-led Stooges continued to perform until 1975, which was the year both Moe and Larry passed away. So sadly, none of the premier stooges were alive during my tenure on Earth, which began in a stooge-less world in 1976.
