Once at a friend's house I saw an animated segment from "The New 3 Stooges" on 16 mm film. The segment had the Stooges rowing a boat, and after Moe calls "Stroke... stroke... stroke," Larry says "I'm having a stroke!" Of course, Larry later died after a series of strokes, making the joke's bad taste even worse. -Tim
