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.

Askew

It was Eldridge, the village drunk, who first heard the cries for help from the Face of Everyman. It seems that his disorientation had gone all day without notice. His voice now weak and hoarse, the venerable sage had all but given up hope of being rescued. The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa public works crane arrived with in the hour to set things straight.

Whirling Dervish

Auditions for the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa’s version of SNL produced some strange contestants. Those with some promise were placed in the Chautauqua group for the Fall Show. Others were asked by the Face of Everyman to please practice a bit more and return next month.

Midnight Night Show

It was that long awaited midnight show featuring the Bancroft Boys; Hear No, See No and Speak No. The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa “rocked” with crowd enthusiasm. The trio were prompted for two encores. the Face of Everyman rolled his eyes, expressing his wonderment at what passed for entertainment these days.
