"Honey, there's a fairie in our garden," my wife muttered in my ear as I lay sleeping peacefully, thoughts of work and stress completely out of my jurisdiction for the duration...I woke up sweating. Fairies in my garden. My first thought--they'll wreck my prize dahlias. Without a second thought, I reached for the Remington 870 Police Riot Special I use for home defense and varmints...
