If I were to create another clan I would have to make a 3 Stooges Clan for all of you guys (and girls) who grew up watching their educational shows.
Where else could you learn that when you run the electrical pipes into the water main, water comes out of your lights?!
I never would have know that salami can double as fix-a-flat....
Do you have any other fun memories of the show?

Uh..why?
Is RoyalChicken a Wendy's sandwhich in the UK? Sorta like a Royal with Cheese? Hmmm? 😉 Sorry RC. Couldn't resist. I haven't harassed to you in a while.
I've never been to a Wendy's in the UK unfortunately, but from what I hear a good many of them would prefer if the royal family were birds.
Jacko, ask any mathematician and he or she will tell you that the number 1729 is very interesting.
And, BTW, my handle does not come from the phrase 'royal chicken', but rather from the fact that I am really named Roy Albert Chicken 😛.

It was also the number of Hardy's taxi, as the story goes...
sorry RC, dont get you hear 😕😕😕😕

Sum of two distinct pairs of cubes, Bennett. 1728+1 and 729+1000.
Other than that, nice going 🙂.
Crikey, editing before the correction is hardly fair.
Brilliant title. Where from?

Wasn't NyukNyukNyuk also part of Short Circuit? That was a cool movie!
That was a cool movie that also demonstrates the educational power of the 3 Stooges. 🙄
