Adios

Another tenant headed South, perhaps to Mexico.  the Face of Everyman was always sorry to see a good customer leave the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  His income stream always got a little thin this time of year.  Winter guests only wanted a little space in which to roost.Wst Tngr

Inept

the Face of Everyman, mused that parents should not be allowed to bring their clumsy, unattractive children to the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  Who screens these reservations?  This family should be Red Tagged for the next six weeks; maybe longer.IMG_0278 (2)

Echo

Lucy was one of the first to realize that she could create an echo if she projected her voice across the waters of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  the Face of Everyman was solid basalt with a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale.  Diamond tipped tools had carved this stoic visage.  Lucy’s words were reflected back in nano-seconds.  The venerable sage tried to nap; alas, he felt like a verbal pin cushion.IMG_0255 (2)

Spraying

Regional climate changes were signaling to Brenda that it is time to head South.  She couldn’t leave this early until she had said her goodbyes to the good folks at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  the Face of Everyman assured her that there would be a greater supply of bugs and caterpillars next season.  He had red lined the Grounds Keepers budget item for dusting and spraying.

Blood and Guts

Crowds wanted more blood and guts action entertainment.  The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa decided that carefully choreographed wrestling should fill the bill.  the Face of Everyman began interviews.  Seen below is the Masked Marvel of Chapultepec, suited up and ready to rumble.  Actually only publicity photos were being taken at this time.  First match is tonight at 9 PM, after the movie.

Pedicure

Everyone was proud to learn that one of the young Crows from the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa had been selected to be a Congressional Page for a Representative from this district.  When young Hadley asked the Face of Everyman what he could do to bring honor to this job; the venerable sage replied, “Get a pedicure.”IMG_0063 (2)

Bugs

Miss Havisham passed through the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa; she was amazed at the dearth of suitable bugs available for dining.  A bit chagrined, the Face of Everyman could only respond that it had been a cool summer so far and perhaps that would change.  He uncrossed his fingers as soon as she flew off.IMG_0204 (2)

Albino Boy

XXXRansom could no longer deny the truth.  He had eaten something at the street fair which had caused him to lose his yellow pigmentation.  The doctors at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa were at a loss to as to how to reverse the process.  the Face of Everyman  consulted his vast library.  Was Ransom an albino or a lencistic?  The venerable sage decided the latter; but had no answers.  Everyone adopted a wait and see attitude.

100

Without proper sports equipment recess at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa Montietorkie School had been reduced to such tests of endurance as holding one’s head under water.  Seen below Casper dunks his head while the Face of Everyman counts to one hundred.  The CPR kit was close at hand if resuscitation was required.
