Roko's basilisk was referenced in Canadian musician Grimes's music video for her 2015 song "Flesh Without Blood" through a character named "Rococo Basilisk" who was described by Grimes as "doomed to be eternally tortured by an artificial intelligence, but she's also kind of like Marie Antoinette." After thinking of this pun and finding that Grimes had already made this pun, Elon Musk contacted Grimes, which led to them dating.[13][14]

In 1992, two months prior to the production of season 1 of Rocko's Modern Life, Murray's first wife,[7] Diane, committed suicide.[8] Murray had blamed the show being taken as the reason for his wife's suicide.[9] Murray felt that he had emotional and physical "unresolved issues" when he moved to Los Angeles. He describes the experience as like participating in "marathon with my pants around my ankles". Murray initially believed that he would create one season, move back to the San Francisco Bay Area and "clean up the loose ends I had left hanging". To his surprise Nickelodeon approved new seasons.[2]

Wall was again proclaimed "King of the Dudes" in 1888 by the New York American newspaper. A journalist named Blakely Hall judged that Wall had won the "Battle of the Dudes" against Robert "Bob" Hilliard, another sartorial dude when, during the March Blizzard of 1888, he strode into a bar clad in gleaming boots of patent leather that went to his hips.[5] Nevertheless, some historians still consider it was Hilliard who won that dude battle.[6]

Reminds me of the coastline around my hometown, which was for centuries plagued by hiking dunes. It must have begun in the middle ages, cause there are sources back to the early 1500s that refer to earlier problems. Possibly the reason was that the coast was one of the few areas that the serfs could let their sheep and cattle graze freely, which soon loosened the dirt, which then blew away. If I understand the phenomenon correctly, it was basically like the American dust bowl, but coastal.

Anyway, several attempts were made to curb it. A major one was the hiring of a German who built fences and planted trees along part of the coastline. Christian VI had a monument put up in his name in 1738, and part of that area remains publicly accessible to this day.

In another town further down the coast, the lighthouse keeper was put in charge in the early mid 1800s. I've seen his journal, it's pretty funny: he hired the young girls to plant both coniferous and deciduous trees on the coast, but for some reason many of them were repeatedly pulled up overnight. It turned out that some young boys felt scorned by the "girly foolery" on the beach.

Eventually, they did manage to overcome the lovely boys though, and we have a pretty dece coastline now.

On 30 April 1988, Dr Nikolai Ustinov died when 44 years of age, 14 days after accidentally pricking himself through two layers of rubber gloves with a needle contaminated with the Marburg virus. The long-term goal of the research was to weaponise it for use on the MIRV missiles that are aimed at the United States. Ustinov wrote a diary for the last ten days of his life. It is said "he sweated blood directly from the pores of his skin, and left bloody fingerprints on the pages of his diary." But all was not in vain! Cultures of the virus killed Ustinov live on and some of his remains lie in a freezer from where other more careful ghouls can harvest fresh batches. "Variant U" is so potent that under six microscopic particles lodged in the lungs of a monkey will guarantee its gruesome death.[11]

Plot summary [edit]

Al Rosen stuck his neck out to help the Detroit government put some goons in prison, only it didn't go according to plan. He is living in Israel off the checks sent his way by the company he helped found. The checks are brought to him by the untrusty sleazy lawyer Mel Bandy. Rosen spends his days hanging out in hotel lobbies, getting sun, and just simply staying out of sight. But one fateful night there's a hotel fire that draws the attention of the media and Rosen gets photographed and wound up getting his face in the Detroit Free Press. Now Rosen's enemies know where he is and they immediately descend on the Holy Land for the purpose of killing him. Sgt. David Davis is about to finish his tour with the marines. The big problem is that he has no idea what to do with himself once he is out. Now Rosen is on the run in Israel with three killers and a sleazy lawyer on his tail and a U.S. Marine for company. Can this Vietnam vet U.S. Marine keep Rosen safe.....

A music video was produced for the song "Wise Guy," featuring Pesci reciting his lyrics in various mob-themed settings. "Wise Guy" recreates elements from the Blondie song "Rapture" and features a chorus lyrically similar to that of Fred Rogers' "Won't You Be My Neighbor?".
