    It’s too bad that only little girls believe in fairies, otherwise I could tell Clara that she’s looking for them in all the wrong places.

    “There. These bars should keep more of those danged ground-walkers from sneaking in. Now we just have to call the exterminator get rid of the ones that’re already here, like that one over there sleeping on our spare firewood. I tell you, they’re worse than cockroaches.

    When taking a break from writing Mein Kampf, Hitler liked to imagine the revenge he would take on the fairies who liked to show him how easily they could escape prison.

    all have info, or links that point to more info, about this artist (again, Chrome can translate as necessary, and askart.com can be read in full for free on Fridays), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the title URL. So far, 2 works by him have been used here.

    has the prior (my comment there had the same artist info URLs).

    Unfortunately, although the fairies were very agile, they couldn’t get out either. Turned out to be pretty crowded in that cell.
