I've been on the forums almost daily for over 3-1/2 years and I don't recall ever hearing/reading about Stan and Lou. And since I can't access youtube from work, I still don't know who they are.

Stan and Lou are the Abbot and Costello of the Rogue Isles. Classic.
Stan and Lou are on the air again. You can find them at kjsr.net, either in the mix by the auto DJ, or by request from one of our live DJs.
The Abrams is one of the most effective war machines on the planet. - R. Lee Ermy.
Q: How do you wreck an Abrams?
A: You crash into another one.
When you say Stan & Lou for some reason the first thing I think of is Stan Laurel and Lou Costello.
Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

I had totally forgot about these guys, good laughs

Or Groucho and Chico or Eccles and Bluebottle or George and Gracie or, well, just about any classic radio comedy duo. This is great stuff. Many thanks for the link.

So for those who are not yet familiar with the CoH humor that is Stan & Lou, or have had too long since hearing this classic, fear not! They can be enjoyed on YouTube, starting with Stan and Lou #1: Outbreak.
