Blackout

A widespread blackout plunged the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa into total darkness. The eerie quiet surprised everyone as the giant pumps stopped and the flow of the Spring of Eternal Giving dried up. Once again the Face of Everyman slept thru it all.

Facial

Olivia booked a facial every Saturday at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. She felt that it was money well spent not to look old and haggard. Next week she would have her feathers touched up. the Face of Everyman looked on in envy; the best he could do was a light exfoliation every Spring.

Damsel in Distress

Natasha had made plans to open a ballet dance studio at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa; but, fate struck again. A mask mandate renewed Monday. What to do? What to do? Ever to the rescue of damsels in distress the Face of Everyman offered to rent her the where with all for virtual classes.

Smoke & Flame

As smoke from Canadian forest fires changed the quality of the air and light, little Henrietta of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa Ladies Auxiliary Fire & Rescue demonstrated her ability get a mouthful of water and douse any nearby flames. the Face of Everyman hoped that the village fire house had more modern means of fire suppression.

Temps

Eloise thought of cancelling her lease and moving closer to the coast. The heat was about to go up and the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa was the only cooling center for miles around. Even the Face of Everyman felt uncomfortable with this unseasonably hot weather.

Mahjong

Mom was livid. Dad would be late for work and Junior was due at soccer ten minutes ago. She herself would miss getting the best table at Mahjong. She wished now that they had never bought the time share at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. It seemed too high above their station in life. the Face of Everyman reserved his comments.

Craft Marbles

Fitzroy had an uncanny penchant for craft marbles. His collection was one of the marvels of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. the Face of Everyman kept his personal collection out of sight. Robbery attempts were of a real concern. Sotheby’s had offered to arrange a private sale if the venerable sage was interested.

Masks

Elizabeth arrived early to prepare her classroom at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa Montietorkie School. Because she wore a mask it went without saying that all of her students would be required to mask up and maintain social distancing. the Face of Everyman knew better than to confront Elizabeth on this issue.

Mom vs PTA

At the Montietorkie school PTA meeting Mom pointed to her son Beauregard who has been irrevocably harmed by wearing a mask during the recent Avian Flu scare. His disfigurement brought little interest from the somber colored songbirds. They suggested that she take her case to the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa school board. From past experiences the Face of Everyman saw little hope of justice for this unhappy Mom.

Perp

the Face of Everyman was pleased with the portrait shot of this prowler of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Wanted posters of this perp tentatively ID-ed as Panther, AKA Lucy would be displayed thru out the vast forest. It wouldn’t be long before someone phoned in the location of her hideout.
