From Le Chariviari, 1884.

You've heard of "flipping someone the bird" as an "f-you."  Here's the bird in question, under the care of Cupid.  From Fliegende Blätter, 1925.

We encountered and determined the cause of a temporal anomaly in the city of Colorado Springs, Colorado.  The clock in the bedroom of our historic farmhouse lodging displays a frozen time.  As constant investigators of such phenomena, we saw the source of the problem instantly.  Placed right next to the clock is an empty antique birdcage.  That relic is the cause of the clock's inoperability.  An empty cage traditionally symbolizes that something in one's life has escaped; we've all heard that "time flies," and so QED.  Though the cause is simple enough, great mysteries yet abound, for has an old clock in a nearby farmhouse now gained time?  By the way, that slip of paper in the corner of our photo is from a fortune cookie that a stranger gifted me after the Ghost concert we attended (ticket and earplugs also pictured).  The fortune reads, "Do what is right, not what you should."  (And yes, apparently we do take and eat candy from strangers.)
