All right, so here's a bizarre coincidence. On Sunday, that is, three days ago, I watched the Doctor Who episode "The Girl in the Fireplace", which was, by the way, the best Doctor Who episode I've seen so far. The episode prominently featured historical figure Madame de Pompadour, who I hadn't heard of, so I later looked her up on Wikipedia just to see what her bag was. That's how I roll.
Today while I was playing Ghostbusters: The Video Game -- also excellent -- the Ghostbusters encountered a portrait that they deemed significant, and they identified the subject as a relative of the game's villain. But wait a sec...
That's totally Madame de Pompadour! What are the odds?
Well, okay, given the amount of television I watch combined with the amount of video games I play and my average number of webpages surfed, this is probably more happenstance than coincidence. But still. Anyway after some minor Googling on my part I can't find anyone else who's made this connection, so, there you have it: I've accomplished something in life. Yayyyy.
