The reference is reasonably obvious (I got it, anyway). It might be too close if you say Fetch is short for a surname of Fetcher. Or not...? I suppose if you called him Fido Fetcher (which is what he does, too!), Fetch for short, it's close enough without being too close, since Fido sounds nothing like Irwin Maurice (<i>that</i>, I had to look up!).Keeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14927854184107004121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469587717890903237.post-21830946543815788602010-07-18T01:54:57.697-07:002010-07-18T01:54:57.697-07:00I think I based Fetch on the Fletch detective seri...I think I based Fetch on the Fletch detective series.
