Lightbulb My Theory Of 4's

With tomorrow being 11-11-11, it got me thinking about #s and their symetry/significance. Then I remembered this list I started over on joecustoms last year (and had help from the members there growing it). It started out as how I noticed things in our pop-culture (especially from the 1980s) occuring in 4s, then it sort of just expanded those boundries from there. It's quite a long list, so you may not want to bother with it unless you have a cup of coffee and 5 extra minutes to waste - but look it over if you have the time/interest and see if maybe you can come up with any that I/we didn't think of:

Not exactly true there were 8 official Stooges (Ted Healy, Moe Howard, Larry Fine, Curly Howard, Shemp Howard, Joe Besser, Joe DeRita, and Emil Sitka)

Interesting list

Nice additions/corrections to the list SithViper. - I admit I am not the biggest Stooges officianato, so I defer to you on that one

Yeah, Craig T. Nelson was good in the TV Series "Monk" also!

Thanks for checking it out!

Although If you divide the number of Stooges by 2 you get 4
