WTF Friday

[bironic]

fanthropology has WTF Wednesday. I hereby propose WTF Friday, for sharing and discussion of the latest bizarre things we've come across.

Here is today's, a book description I found on a website that catalogues vampires in literature:

William Pridgen. NIGHT OF THE DRAGON'S BLOOD (Palatka, FL: Hodge & Braddock, 1997). Comic novel. What if Hitler were a vampire hiding out in South America -- who had made Eva Peron a vampire, too?

My co-worker lent me a tape of The L-Word because one of the characters is dating someone she's convinced is a vampire. The woman's name is Uta Refson (spell it backwards) and she claims to be a vampirologist. It was pretty funny. Alan Cumming was also in it, first in a Victor/Victoria sort of getup and then in regular mascara etc.

Thus we got to talking about Alan Cumming just now, and I asked if she knew about his cologne line. "Yeah," she said, "Isn't it called 'Cumming All Over Your Face' or something?" At which point I burst out laughing, and then she burst out laughing, and then we had a little too much fun here and here. She's decided to put "Cumming In A Bar" on her Secret Santa list next year. In the meantime, maybe we'll go see The Threepenny Opera.
