I swear on the Jewish Bible that we found this receipt for window tinting in a copy of Bram Stroker's "Dracula." I know that sounds unbelievable, but we did. Did someone put it there purposely as a joke? I don't know. Did a real life dracula take his car into the shop while reading about his forefather?
