For a second thought the point about The Best of Love was they were trying to spell the word L-o-v-e with a combination of the rocks and their bodies, with the hole in one rock serving as the letter 'o' but don't think it works.
You should look up the full Thin Lizzy story, it's pretty interesting.

Also wondered if there was a reason that Bryan Maclean was holding the painting in the staircase photo, if it was a pun on something, at least visually but don't know what it is if it is one.
Do know that Arthur needs basic lessons on telling his orifices apart if he's smoking through his earhole as he is attempting to in that shot.

"Time flies like the wind; fruit flies like a banana."
I mean, I've never thought about the sentence much, just seen it around, but I guess I assumed it was about the figurative use of time "flying" vs. an actual banana that someone threw through the air, or something.

there's a restaurant i drive past sometimes at the top of a gently sloping incline called 'thai on the hill' which i have come to think might be a lonely goatherd pun.

Not a pun exactly but it's only just occurred to me that the slang word "phizzog" is likely a corruption of "visage"
