They were billed as The World’s Smallest Choir, home based at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. During rehearsal the Face of Everyman could tell that things weren’t going well. Each singer had clearly defined parts: soprano, alto, etc. Bobby kept trying to sing parts meant for others; sometimes tenor, sometimes bass. Alas, if this problem wasn’t corrected soon, their bookings would go to the Vienna Boys Choir.
Pastor Bob
The moment that the life giving force of the Spring of Eternal Giving ceased to flow the Face of Everyman was startled awake. Through his sleepy-eyed state he perceived the reflection of an enormous raptor about to swoop down and make a kill right here in the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Within a nano second he had cleared his eyes and determined that it was merely Pastor Bob about to give another interminable sermon.
Stuffed Figs
One has to wonder what terrible crimes these night marauders have committed that they compulsively wash their hands. the Face of Everyman had to ask. It turns out that Figs are in season at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Overripe Figs with juicy goodness are messy Figs. The venerable sage opined that he liked his stuffed with Blue Cheese in hopes that a few might appear on his door step.
Circuit Rider
The circuit rider reverend arrived to give a memorial for Lem the pigeon lost to a Raptor on Friday. The Reverend Wigglesworth disliked the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa because there was no live TV feed to the networks. Neither Songbird nor Pigeon attended. Could the Face of Everyman forgotten to post the announcement?
News
News that POTUS had cancelled the big parade was met with mixed reaction in the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Some members of the drill team wanted to continue to march and train for national competition. the Face of Everyman suggested that some could join the Foggy Bottoms Square Dance Club and use their skills of precision and timing in a social atmosphere. Nowadays cries of Do si do and Face your partner ring out every Saturday night.
Rapid Eye Movement
Legend has it that a Ghost protects the innocent inhabitants of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. It must be so, because the Face of Everyman, shown above, is in his REM stage of sleep and seems oblivious to the rest of world.
Glance
The most predacious of them all is Panther. She prowls the vast grounds of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa almost at will. Seen above she casts a glance at the Face of Everyman. Perhaps a small bird is perched there and can be caught unawares.

Man Up
In a dramatic portrayal of Uncle Tom’s Cabin in the Summer stock theater of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa we see Eliza crossing the frozen Ohio river on the ice floes. the Face of Everyman had been unaware that he had been cast. But “man up” he did and added it to his actor’s resume.
Chaos
The early attempts at automated Iris Recognition by security forces of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa proved much more difficult than even the Face of Everyman could surmount. Till bugs could be worked out, a system of challanges and passwords was employed. Each night chaos ensued.
Naiad
Naiad, the Freshwater Spirit, visited the Face of Everyman as he dozed. She reminded him that the water filters needed to be cleaned. After all, it was up to him to maintain the high standards of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.
