    The ladies of the “house” working on their break-away gowns for tonight’s activities. The madam’s assistant is checking to see how many “French Letters” they think they will need.

    The scientists at the textile manufacturer felt no compunction to wear white lab coats, except, of course, when they had to work with those dreadful acid washed denims.

    I want to meet the parents who would name their kid “Cooter.” I wouldn’t know whether to shake their hand or punch them in the face.

    I’m Sarah. I’ll be your waitstaff this afternoon. Our soup today, as it is everyday, is porridge. Our special dessert is once again, figgy pudding.

    (best viewed by Google Chrome, with Google Translate added to chrome://extensions, which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting.

    http://dbe.rah.es/biografias/49525/manuel-garcia-y-martinez 

    both have Spanish info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s indirectly pointed to by the first URL: 

    https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manuel_Garc%C3%ADa_Hispaleto 

    (again Chrome can automatically translate any parts in Spanish). So far, 2 works by him have been used here.

    has the prior, which while my comment is still there, with the line breaks removed, its 13 hyperlinks remain inactive. ?&@#!#%&! (My just added reply points to the URL containing much of what was in my comment).
