The trouble with Google is that it spoils all the fun. If you think you've come up with a fantastic pun, it's one thing to guess that probably someone else had thought of it before, but it's quite another to have Google actually tell you who and when.

(It just occurred to me to wonder whether there'd ever been a kill-or-cure asthma treatment called Vlad the Inhaler.)

And, indeed, Christian who used to run The Calling used on occasion to call himself Vlad the Inhaler. I'm just wondering if Vlad the Impala's been seen in action.

OTOH Google also reveals that quite a lot of people think the guy was called "Vlad the Impeller"...

Ah, he was an oarman too! Excellent.

Or whether someone's run an RPG where the Fey Folk bartender is Vlad the Imp Aler?
