Every year it was the same old story at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. The School Board claimed that there may not be enough money to open the Montetorkie school. Moms met to talk about Home Schooling as an alternative. About the only topics they could agree on were: predator ID and foraging techniques. the Face of Everyman interrupted; suggesting that he was willing to approach a large cat food maker with an offer of selling them the naming rights to this small remote school house. The ladies pretended that hadn’t heard a word that the venerable sage had uttered.
Waiting
The mist maker was temporarily removed from the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. County Health was reviewing the facts surrounding the Face of Everyman’s rapid on set of PTSD attributed to this new feature. Disappointment ran high with local song birds and guests who seemed little effected by traumatic episodes of repressed long term memory. Most hung around expectantly until lunch was served on the patio.
Wild Canary Sisters
The Wild Canary Sisters met at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa on a regular basis to perfect their act and musical routines. Today, of all days, the Face of Everyman learned that the group was breaking up, disbanding forever. A look of shock and disbelief flashed across the face of the venerable sage. In a moment he regained composure and pretended that he had over heard nothing.
Men’s Club
Attendance at the Men’s Athletic Club of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa dropped off sharply with the hot weather and pressures from family members to spend more time with them at the Putt-Putt Golf Course and Devil’s Corkscrew Water Park. At first there didn’t seem to be a quorum to allow voting for suspension of meetings until next Spring. As it turned out the Face of Everyman held the proxy votes of several hundred paid up club members. The vote to suspend: Unanimous.
Contest
The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa village newspaper was offering a prize for the best essay on What Father’s Day Means To Me. A few of the guys thought that if they brain stormed as a group they could come up with the prize winning essay. the Face of Everyman was bemused. Judging by the paucity of fledglings anywhere about; these bozos hadn’t a clue.
Disappointment
The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa had a wide spectrum of guests and locals. the Face of Everyman was constantly surprised by what he overheard. Beatrix had been expecting her childhood friend Lance to propose. Instead he wanted to ask her thoughts on his sharing a loft with Maximilian that hot new bartender.
Plumage
Fregley was very pleased with his newly patented innovation: DIY mating plumage. He waited for his buddy Ralph at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa; together they could troll for “chicks”. Fregley knew his concoction wasn’t perfect; just a mixture of gun oil and lamp black. But when applied lightly … In dim light he looked all grown up. the Face of Everyman suggested that Fregley add just a hint of Bay Rum or Lilac water. Couldn’t hurt.
Yellow Peril
Leslie was the Advance Man for the famous rock group Yellow Peril. They were on their third final world tour. The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa is where the band first got together. Back then, they were just a rag tag bunch of Cabana Boys trying to make their mark in a field already glutted with wannabes. the Face of Everyman shuddered when he realized the nightly cacophony he would have to endure during their booking.
Protocol
Once again it was an awkward moment at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Neither could remember the Protocol applicable here. Was it “First come, first served?” “Age before beauty?” “Ladies first?” Or alphabetical by taxonomic rank? Bathing together never seemed an option.
LGBTQ
These are exciting times at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. The Reverend Lambda has performed several matrimonial unions just this past week. Seen here are Mavis and Doris joined at last. The good Reverend completing his solemn officiating with his signature flamboyant gesture. A true blessing for the new couple.
