Johnny Dark Eyes usually did the closing act at a Casino in Vegas. So when he was booked into the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa his popular style of humor was well received by the early birds and night owls. His agent was supposed to tell him about the eclipse of the super moon. Just as he had his crowd warmed up he went into his monologue. About the second laugh-getter, a strange darkness fell. The disappointed crowd found their way home by flash light. the Face of Everyman hoped that they were all returned.
Toastmasters
Seen above in an archived image are the founding fathers of the Foggy Bottom Resort and Spa Toastmasters Club. Organizational suggestions offered by the Face of Everyman went unheeded. In the end the noontime Club disbanded and returned their charter. The two main reasons given: the catered road kill servings were small and the speeches were to be given in Esperanto.
Specter
Occasionally an eerie specter would appear at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. In a thick foreign accent he seemed to be saying, “I lost my luggage at LAX.” the Face of Everyman was at a loss as to how to help this small stranger. Budget constraints had forced the closure of the local Travellers’ Aid Society.
Facial
It was a slow day following heavy rains and strong winds at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. An ideal opportunity for the kindly ol’ pensioner to do chores. First up was the long standing work order to vigorously brush moss and lichen from the face of the venerable sage. It was not a complete facial, however, there was a request to remove some of his frown lines. the Face of Everyman provided his own special formulation of organic body putty.
Tibetan Throat Singing
After a brief period of being comatose Mullard awoke to discover that he had mastered Tibetan Throat Singing. His thunderous tones resonated thru out the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. None could be more surprised than the Face of Everyman for it was one of the few skills that the venerable sage had never mastered.
Source
Bailey sought the source of The Spring of Eternal Giving which provided much that could be called “blessings” to the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. No one except the Face of Everyman knew the true origins of this EPA approved water supply.
Bully
The renown Montetorkie School at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa had an enviable record for child behavior and discipline. Bully insigated dust ups seldom occurred; that is until “Diesel” Rekker transferred in from some do-gooder wild life rescue outfit upstate. Seen above, frozen in fear, is “Twinky” LaRue. the Face of Everyman felt powerless to intervene.
Nonchalant
Mullard tried to appear nonchalant as he wore his new mail order suit. Guests at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa could hardly suppress their tittering. Who wore white after labor Day? the Face of Everyman suggested that the May Day parade would be a great time to wear that suit and dazzle those city slickers.
Querent
Elizabeth returned to the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa for a virtual Tarot Card reading. Her attempts at speed dating hadn’t gone well and she sought answers from the cards as interpreted by the Face of Everyman. Repeated spreads revealed a lonely future for the eager querent.
Wrinkled Peas
the Face of Everyman was only slightly troubled by the results of his secret pigeon breeding program at the Foggy Bottoms Resort an Spa. It was Larry, with the white flashes on his back. Could this be the “wrinkled peas” effect that the old Friar Gregor Mendel warned him about? The venerable sage quickly reviewed his lab notes.
