Soitanly!....NOT!



I recently read a piece of trash called BEYOND THE LAUGHTER: A DAUGHTER'S STORY OF CURLY'S POST THREE STOOGES YEARS written by a crazy person named Grace Garland. Really she must be crazy if she thinks people are going to believe this garbage fiction disguised as a real biography. 


Where can I start? Why did she pick Curly Howard, the lovable stooge as the target of her wackadoo fantasy? Except for providing fans with tons of laughs what did he ever do do to anyone to deserve such treatment. Ok, I'm sure he wasn't perfect. Who is? I can't imagine what Curly's living relatives think of this nonsense. 


Why does it suck? 


Here's some examples all according to Ms. Garland: Curly was not Jewish, he was Italian-Catholic and heavily involved with "the mob" who we later learn killed JFK. Even J. Edgar Hoover was his pal. Although he did work in the film industry he had no brothers and his real name was Larry Fine! Poor Larry! Even Mr. "Stooge In The Middle" Larry is dragged into this thing! It also turns out that Curly didn't die in 1952.  He lived into the '60's and knew who killed JFK. In fact on the day of his assassination the soon to be ex-president was looking for the ex-Stooge! (????) Oh yeah, Curly also wrote the book "The Godfather"! Mario Puzo's name was just a front! 


All of this is suppose to have been documented by Curly's daughter who's mom was married to Curly at one time but his family had their marriage annulled because she wasn't  Catholic. (Actually this is one point that is almost factually true. I have read that Curly's first marriage did end in an annulment...). Believe me, if you read one book this year BEYOND THE LAUGHTER: A DAUGHTER'S STORY OF CURLY'S POST THREE STOOGES YEARS isn't it!!
