I think he means for that one line:

thissq = pygame.rect.Rect( x*square_width, y*square_height, square_width,
square_height )

since the format is:
pygame.Rect(left, top, width, height)

But yeah, Rect objects don't need to be "associated with" an image/surface.
They're basically just 4-item tuples, and you can even use such tuples
interchangeably for some functions. You can use rects for other things too,
like testing whether a point is within some area.
