You know you can find some really really weird titles just by typing in random words or phrases into the add book/author thing. It's great fun.
Anything by Laurie Notaro pretty much, gems include:
"I thought you would be Prettier."
"Idiot Girl and the Flaming Tantrum of Death" (this one is the one that inspired me to pick up her books on the strength of the title alone)
"There is a (slight) chance I may be going to Hell."
I think "When You Are Engulfed in Flames" by David Sedaris is a pretty odd title. I mean, really, when you think about it.

'Big Hair and Flying Cows' was one that caught my attention 3-4 yrs ago at the library. How could I NOT pick it up. I read it in one night and laughed out loud the entire time.

Colleen: The Oliver Sacks book is really interesting, if you are into neurology, etc. He's the doctor whose work inspired the film Awakenings.
