Rhodent

The term for a student at South Africa's Rhodes University.
Rhodes is notorious for its heavy-drinking scene. Thus, being a Rhodent is also synonymous with drinking heavily.

'Everyone was funneling vodka and downing wine from the bottle, it was a typical Rhodent party.'

roentgenizdat

Roentgenizdat is a portmanteau of the words 'roentgen' (as in roentgen rays; x-rays) and the Russian 'izdatel'stvo' meaning publisher. It is a variation of the better-known 'samizdat', or 'self-publication', referring to the underground publication of banned literature in the Soviet Union. As well as literature, much western music (including rock and jazz, etc.) was banned. Despite some records being smuggled through to the legions of jonesing music junkies, demand far exceeded supply. Vinyl was near-impossible to get, so even when records could miraculously cross the border, they could not be reproduced. However, soon enough someone brilliant realised that sound grooves could be inscribed in the acetate of old x-ray plates. Thus, the roentgenizdat, or x-ray press, was born. X-ray records (or 'rock on ribs' as they were often known, due to the bones which were visible when the discs were held up to the light) were of poor quality and seldom lasted for more than a few months, but they still contained the precious forbidden music, and as such were treasured by all who could get their hands on them.

The roentgenizdat was eventually discovered and banned in 1958.

Non Gratum Anus Rodentum

(Latin) Literally "Not Worth a Rat's Ass," the slogan of the Tunnel Rats, who were either U.S. Army combat engineers or infantrymen of small stature who cleared the extensive tunnel network of the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War.

Willy wore a patch with the saying "Non Gratum Anus Rodentum" on his field jacket. This indicates that he was a Tunnel Rat during 'Nam.
