Morty Seinfeld

I've noticed when Morty talks about when he was in the raincoat business... the number of years always varies. I've seen 3 different episodes lately where he says 35, 38, and 40. Anyone else notice this?

How far apart, in years, were the episodes? :-)

It shouldn't matter. Morty 'was' in the raincoat business. He wasn't anymore.

His quotes were something like:

"I sold raincoats for 35 years." "I sold raincoats for 38 years." "I was in the garment industry for 40 years." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

True, that makes a difference. Here are the quotes....

[The Money] MORTY: Well, I sold raincoats in the garment centre for thirty-eight years. In nineteen forty-nine...

[The Money] MORTY: Morty Seinfeld. I cut velvet for forty years with Harry Altman.

[The Watch] MORTY: Don't tell me about business! I sold raincoats for thirty-five years!

Nope, in The Money he does say "Altman". Remember he says "he cut velvet" not "sell raincoats".

Once in the raincoat business, always in the raincoat business. : )

He still had a supply though :o)

Yup, and the episode with him teaming with Kramer to try and sell them is one of my favorites. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yeah, and it will keep getting higher and higher. You know old people, they LOVE to exaggerate.

Poor Morty. He needs new glasses.
