LOCAL MUSIC INDUSTRY EXEC FAILS TO IDENTIFY STANDARD PINK FLOYD TRACK

In news that is sure to shock even those not affiliated with the music business, Jay Garrison, a local of Portland, OR in his 40's failed to recognize the popular if not over-played Pink Floyd Song 'Have a Cigar' late Tuesday afternoon. "It took us a few minutes to realize that he wasn't just fucking with us." said Brad Miele, the long haired IT director for the up and coming music company. The story began to unfold when Garrison stopped by the most musical office in the building and unwittingly exposed his ignorance by asking "Who is this?" while the Pink Floyd track was playing. "I wonder how the guy ties his shoes?" said Catalog Director Justyn Baker of the unfortunate event. Dan Holmes, another music industry exec, heard the debacle from his office down the hall. "I overheard the conversation, and I thought he was totally kidding. I'm not sure that the tragedy has soaked in quite yet". "Are you serious? ARE YOU SERIOUS?" asked the incredulous Teresa Oliver in response the shocking mishap. Meanwhile, Garrison professed of himself "I'm the king of lame. . . sorry.". From the company's perspective this is not a simple case of early middle aged onset senile dementia. "This makes me wonder if Jay is who he says he is, and if he was actually alive in the late 60's, 70's, 80's, and even 90's" remarked James Picollo, the man in charge of making sure the perpetrator of the fiasco gets paid. The CEO of Rumblefish was not available for comment at the time of this story.

Jay has requested that anyone wanting to offer support respect his wishes to be alone while he processes the magnitude of this new challenge in his life.
