I never knew, but I thought maybe it was a reference to Jim Caroll,
the poet and sometimes BOC collaborator.  Didn't he write something
on CN, either Perfect Water or Madness...

Anyone ever hear any of JC's stuff?  Saw him live a long time ago,
and he played the unforgettable 'People Who Died."  That song alone
would be worth picking up one of his discs...
