RE: RAT Quote for the day
See, that's a little bit too twistedly inside for words.
Let me try to explain. Mr. Bretz is not from Seattle at all. In fact, I
think he'd never been there until recently. But in Los Angeles he associated
so much with people from the Jet City that many people in Los Angeles began
to assume that he was from Seattle. This amused Matt no end and he would
often comment about this to me.
After this offhanded inside joke (inside his own head joke) people from
Seattle will start thinking that he is from Seattle. Soon he will appear in
pictures of parties thrown at Annex years ago. People will find programs
from old AHA! shows with his name in them and eventually folks will remember
Matt Bretz as the man who founded the Seattle Rep.
Ah. What a tangled web we weave.
Yours in Inaccuracy

PS Wasn't Matt Bretz in "Angry Housewives"?
