Name Origins - Butthole Surfers
Surfing a fine line there...
These guys started out in 1981, and didn't even have a name. They used a different one at every show, one of which being "Nine Foot Worm Makes Own Food." Try saying that one drunk; this nonsense all changed the night an announcer forgot the name they gave him, and simply called them by one of their 1984 song titles, Butthole Surfer. It may have hurt album sales initially, but over time, it's only helped make them more well known.More...

Alien Island
Socotra = Sanskrit for "The Island of Beaches"
Weird shaped fauna abide on this wee little isle situated in the Indian Ocean 250 km from Somalia and 340 km from Yemen.The island, which is part of a group of 4 islands, has been geographically isolated from mainland Africa for the last 6 or 7 million years. Like the Galapagos Islands, this island is teeming with 700 extremely rare species of flora and fauna, a full 1/3 of which are endemic, i.e. found nowhere else on Earth.
An ideal holiday spot?I think not you small minded people(p.s. endemic? )
