Fairies Are Real

Do you believe in Fairies? Well apparently many folks do and for good reason. In April 2007, web sites around the globe and many respectable news agencies began airing reports of a UK man who had stumbled upon the mummified reamins of a real Fairy while walking his dog. Photos of the Fairy began surfacing and left little doubt that proof had finally been made positive that Fairies really do exist. The Fairy was about 8 inches long, with wings and hair and teeth. The furor continued to mount until REAL magic finally surfaced. It seems the VERY realistic Fairy remains and subsequent 'discovery', were the brainchild and artwork of magician and propmaker Dan Baines from Lebanon Circle. After finally fessing up to the hoax and crushing the dreams of Lord of the Rings fans everywhere...Baines sold the original piece of art on eBay for a gazillion dollars. He then commenced to making and selling more of the dead Fairies in his gallery. But for a brief moment in time...he managed to suspend our imagination and paint the world with 'Magic'!

Just went to the website. Kind of creepy and morbid despite not being real. Especially the one in the mason jar.

Yeah...aren't they cool though? Just think if you ran across one of these in the woods. Tell me you wouldn't freak out and wonder what the heck you found.
