RALPH SPOILSPORT:

A used-car salesman, based on Ralph William's ads in Los Angeles.

See ROCKY ROCOCO.

ROCKY ROCOCO:

NICK DANGER's nemesis. Rococo is an extended impression of Peter Lorre playing Joel Cairo in the film "The Maltese Falcon. His name is an apparent play on the Beatle's "Rocky Racoon". Rocky Rococo is known to be a DWARF, wear terrible perfumes, like "pyramid patchuli", and "pickle on a rope". He is also thought to be responsible for everything bad that happens in OXNARD. His main offensive tactic appears to be to put people on installment plans, and then pressure them when they can't keep up the payments. His Japanese counterpart may be Rocky Rocomoto, whose TV series, "Million-Dollar Monster Crasic" (on the NOT INSANE album), featured the Shake-a-speare play "Anythinge you want to", in addition to YOUNG GUY, Motor Detective. In Minneapolis and maybe nationwide, there is a pizzeria chain called "Rocky Rococco", with a Middle-Eastern looking guy in a white suit on the logo.
