Angelica

Few at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa took notice of Angelica as she was called home to begin training as a Guardian Angel.  the Face of Everyman reckoned that she was the third this quarter.  He wasn’t sure if he should count the Dove taken by the Raptor.  He left that cell on his spread sheet open for now; until confirmation.  IMG_0228 (2)

Job Fair

Renaldo was first in line for the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa Job Fair.  the Face of  Everyman scanned Renaldo’s impressive resume’.  He is a drummer for one of the top garage bands in the village.  He has his own house; a foreclosure from a Screech Owl.  He doesn’t migrate; so he could work each season unless he was dating seriously.  The venerable sage put this eager youngster on retainer until an opening came up.IMG_0572 (2)

Haunted Gig

From the very depths of Hell a fearsome sea creature rose to speak to the Face of Everyman about Halloween bookings and arrangements at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  His agent had booked him into the Haunted House from six till twelve but now the union folks at SAG were limiting him to three hours stage time.  “Will the nine till midnight spot work for you?”IMG_0468 (2)

Theremin

The last audition for the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa musical extravaganza was a shy local who would play the Theremin with her own rendition of “Over the Rainbow”.   the Face of Everyman always had a soft spot in his heart for Judy Garland tunes.IMG_0298 (2)

Storm Flags

The first of the Winter storms roared in off of the Pacific threatening the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  the Face of Everyman hoisted the storm flags but it was a bit late for Maynard.  He tried in vain to return to his roost but had to sleep this night in the homeless shelter. IMG_0087 (2)

Halloween

Three tenors signed up for auditions.  Their voices were strong and beautiful but the Face of Everyman was reluctant to book them for the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa annual Mitch Miller Singalong.  It seems that they couldn’t whistle.  However, because of their grotesque appearance he did have a small part for them in his Halloween Extravaganza.

NPR

Anastasia was telling the Face of Everyman of the beauties of her former home town of Odessa, Ukraine and how she yearned to return someday.  As they spoke the NPR station situated on the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa was carrying the latest congressional testimony from that alternate world called Washington.  The venerable sage turned his radio off so that he and she could continue their conversation.IMG_0831 (2)

Think Tank

At the New School of Athens, a think tank allied with the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa a lively discussion of String Theory and recent discoveries had been going on for hours.  the Face of Everyman was keen to ask questions but he needed a nap more than answers.IMG_0289 (2)

Writer’s Retreat

The renown author and lecturer Lady Carrington inquired about renting the cabana huts at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa for her upcoming Winter Writer’s Retreat.  As the Face of Everyman was quick to point out not all of her Plus Sized students could be accommodated.  There would be an additional surcharge for heated roosting  or Time Share nesting.  Bookings were filling fast.  Tempus Fugit.” IMG_0680 (2)

Dance Class

The boys were late for Dance Class.  They heard that the new Dance Master was strict and wielded a mean switch.  Could they help regain the fame of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa Ballet Troupe?  Would the Face of Everyman remember their childish pranks of spinning him until he passed out?  I don’t expect things to go well.  At all. Places everyone.IMG_0010 (2)
