MARK TIME:
A space-adventurer from the Circum-Solar Federation,
serialized by the FT in their "Dear Friends" album, and also a
ride in the FUTURE FAIR. His side-kick is BOB BUNNY.
MEMORY:
See DOCTOR MEMORY!
MOUSE:
Deacon E. L. Mouse, one of the characters in DWARF, serving
under pastor Rod Flash. He was apparently named after a pet beetle
that Phil AUSTIN had of the same name.
MUDHEAD:
PORGIE TIREBITER's friend in the movies. Motivated
by Jughead and Archie, and by Henry Aldrich, the old radio show.
Speculation: Starting with the second film, Henry's pal was a certain
"Dizzy" Stevens. The connection between Dizzy and Jughead is via
baseball: "Dizzy" Dean was a renowned pitcher, and "Mudhead" was
one of the nicknames of an early black baseball great.
This may also be a reference to the Zuni mudheads.
MALMBORG:
See QUID MALMBORG IN PLANO
MST3K:
Mystery Science Theatre 3000. A TV series on the Comedy Channel
which often makes references to obscure Firesign Theatre phrases,
including loose shoes, SHOES for industry, hi i'm joe beets, dear
friends, sit in a tree and learn to play the flute, as well as the
GOLDEN HINDE.

This time on Mystery Science Theater 3000; the "experiment" was
a Jack Palance stinker called THE OUTLAW, and the robot's line was:
"Don't crush that DWARF, hand me the pliers".
There was sort of an albino-type dwarf ("a negative of Herche V.")
which received this line. The whole movie seemed an Italian rip-off
of the GOR series (a feminist S.F. series -- NOT!).
