Subject: Re: anchor
Kind of related, I think:
I think stand-up comics have been doing it for years.
A typical routine might include an almost throwaway gag near the
beginning. After a few minutes of other stuff, they refer back to
that line. The audience feels like they're in on a joke.
Exploring further, I suppose the next act could refer back, too,
making it a running gag for the evening.
If you're a Monty Python fan... Lemon curry?
