Reply #51: at least the Stooges had some basic homebuilding skills ...

You can bet that they would not have injured themselves 5 minutes after stepping onto a construction site (the way Bush did, at that Habitat build). Here is an actual house in Brooklyn which was built by Moe and Curly!




"Moses and Jerome Horwitz built these four houses at Bay 43rd and Bath Avenue in Bath Beach.
Moses' mother Jennie ran Midwood Realty in Bensonhurst. With her help, he bought a plot of land for $1200 at Bath Avenue and Bay 43rd Street, which had only recently been cut through. With the help of his brother Jerome, and some friends from New Utrecht High School, they built four wood frame and brick homes on the block between Bath and Harway Avenue (which may have then been called Cropsey, but we'll get to that). The most prominent is this three-story wood frame dwelling at Bath and Bay 43rd."
