I should probably offer a prize to anyone who can identify all the quotes in the circular panel, and all the visual references in the bottom-background panel.

I'll just touch on the ones you got wrong.
Klingon runes -- Cherokee, actually.
"Sharrup your mouth" -- Boris Badenov.
"Nine heads in all" is what it should have read, not "arms" -- but it's a referrence to Jones in the odd British cartoon called Captain Starr. Jones, Atomic Stoker First Class, had nine heads and six arms.
"Whatsss in her pocketssss" is obviously Golem from Lord of the Rings.
"They're all dead, Dave." -- you were close on this one. It was a line spoken by a computer running a spaceship. But it was Holly on Red Dwarf, and the Dave was Dave Lister.
I was suprised you got "Penitenziagite" (Pen'-ih-ten-zee-ah'-git-tay) from "Name of the Rose," but then I saw that you googled it.

The significance of the belled cat isn't that it's belled, but that its doing the anime super-deformed thing.
The "Funky Chicken" wasn't as specific as that -- just a guy who thinks he's a chicken. Just as the guitar is a guitar and not necessarily a reference to El Kabong. Not that you didnt have a good idea. Who knows... I might have meant that, but just forgoten.
Pretending to drive -- more than that, it's the Toad from "Wind in the Willows," who when restrained from driving cars, arranged furniture in his room to pretend he was driving.
You didn't mention the crayons, but they meant nothing special either. And there's a beheaded teddy-bear you missed. The head is over by the chicken-dancing guy.
Not bad though.

So far as I know, no ordinary hospital can post a guard, though the police sometimes post their own if the patient is under arrest. (It's often the cops who put him there, but sometimes other perps.)
Then there's "security." Usually rent-a-cops with little authority and not likely armed. At least not in Canada.
Institutes that specialize in mental illnesses are apt to have some sort of real security, though. Although whether its a couple of guys in an office or behind a desk somewhere, who respond as needed, or they actually watch over a ward or wing of the hospital, I couldn't say.

Obama's health plan sucks. The only thing worse is what you got.
I predict that despite all the bitching and crying from the insurance industry that they're going to make out like bandits. The government can't offer its own insurance -- LIKE EVERY OTHER DEVELOPED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! -- but not the government makes insurance mandatory. If you can't afford it, who pays? The government. It's now *illegal* not to be exploited by your insurance companies. How can they not be the main beneficiaries of the reform?
