Jetsons-era spaceport
Not a bad little essay on Mid-21st Century Modern architecture.
cyberflaneurs
"A person who idly surfs the internet." In 2012 the New York Times ran an article on the Death of the Cyberflaneur
Page 355
Battlestar Galactica
The reboot doesn't come out until 2004, so here they are talking about the original show.
Regulate
YouTube has it. The song was released in 1994.
More Cowbell
YouTube has a clip from this famous SNL skit, which was first aired, by the way, April 2000.
Does this count as a sneaky Godzilla allusion since the band parodied in the skit, Blue Oyster Cult, also recorded the song Godzilla?
Deus Ex theme
Youtube to the rescue again. WIKI has more on this 2000 cyberpunk-style video game.
cyberelves
Not to be confused, surely, with cyberflaneurs or the "little tiny people...from under the radiator..with little brooms, and dustpans" from page 346.
Page 358
the edge of the unnavigable, the region of no information
Bleeding edge?
the beginning before the Word
John 1:1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
vertigo--lovesick, nauseous
Yet more intimations of Hitchcock's Vertigo. "Lovesick, nauseous" could be the film's subtitle.
Page 360
King Kongs, which are Crown Royal plus banna liqueur
Little odd, no, for the narrative voice to define something like this? I thought that was our job! Real drink, by the way.
Page 361
Oakley M Frames
Somewhat spacey-looking, apparently famous, athletic sunglasses. Oakley site.
Page 362
seldom-heard oldie "Soul Gidget"
Fictional song by from Inherent Vice. Nice touch. Page 155.
"One of the few known attempts at black surf music...by Meatball Flag."
Lyrics:
Who's that strollin down the street,
Hi-heel flip-flops on her feet,
Always got a great big smile
Never gets popped by Juv-o-nile—
Who is it?
Soul Gidget!
Who never worries about her karma?
Who be that signifyin on your mama?
Out there lookin so bad and big,
Like Sandra Dee in some Afro wig—
Who is it?
Soul Gidget!
Surf's up, Soul Gidget’s there,
Got that patchouli all in her hair,
Down in Hermosa she’s runnin wild,
Back in South Central she just a child—
Uh who is it?
Soul Gidget!

you've got to believe...that was the '69 Mets
MiracleMets.

ever try anal?...His specialty I bet?
Little nod to Pynchon's niece, Tristan Taormino, sex educator who wrote The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women?
