Colleen Doran’s blog is awesome:
Well, my brother is [...] back on the police department and is already in the swing of things, this past week working a case where he had to go interview the Left Hand of Satan.
[...]
the Left Hand of Satan was a puzzlement to most of the police department who couldn’t figure out his sigils, his Cuthulu talk, and his devotionals in psuedo-Sumerian, but my brother - with his lifelong interest in the weird - had translated the weirdness in about 45 minutes and was drafted to traipse over to the Mecklinberg County Jail to have a talk with Lefty.
Before the trip, Bro dressed up in his best suit, put on some shades, and picked up a cheap pentagram ring from Spencer’s Gifts because it would look cool to Satan’s Appendage. While the other cops dressed in jeans and baseball caps, Bro’s duds had the desired effect, and Lefty trembled in fear, afraid he was facing one of Satan’s Own Enforcers.
“This guy looks spooky!” he announced, and certain he was in the grip of one of The Faithful, he proceeded to babble along about his evil Babylonian doings, spilling his guts to the spooky guy with the $3 pentagram ring.
A quick aside: I know a cop who was given an undercover detail at a public location frequented by homosexual men looking for anonymous sex. He developed a repertoire of “moves” that virtually guaranteed he would be solicited, and made lots of arrests. Soon, his fellow officers were “stealing his moves” in order to better their own results, leading to some good-natured bickering and competition in the development of new “moves”.
Bro, minion of Gozer, has so impressed the dudes at the department with his penchant for creepy trivia that they are now discussing making him a specialist in supernatural type cop duties.
Just wait - soon they’ll be stealing his spooky moves.
