In our continuous endeavor to spicy up, add some fiery flavor to what is often bland investigative journalism; The Fools Gazette reached out to one of the pillars of gossipy American Journalism, Lovell de la Raconteur! We asked Lovell to participate in the selection of this month’s honorary fool, and provide colorful hints as to his or her likeness. Because we pay sweetly, in advance, - Lovell quickly agreed. Yes, the flamboyant personality of this, that and the other thing, and, the national syndicated column: The Tattletale! In which he points the long finger of rumor at shady characters exposing their secrets! That’s when the eerie sound of the ‘death nail’ echoes, “it’s all over! A reckoning is coming for you!” Besides The Tattletale - Lovell is a highly successful author. His recent, back-to-back bestsellers, the spirited: “Morning Mimosa’s and Afternoon Tropical Cocktails” and the edgy psychological drama: A Vengeful Smirking Dish of Culinary Revenge” are each, a literary masterpiece! The pages burst with iconic characters! Characters who amusingly tickle memory with laughter, as well as embrace the heart with endearing moments! Iconic characters such, Doctor Smiley Syringe, leggy Salacia Maris, the adventurous Tap McKeg, Sing-Sing McCoy aka “The canary of chicanery” - the flower of potent womanly beauty, Nectar de la Flora, or the sultry Bella Comforter, or the intoxicatingly handsome JB Straightup, or lucky Shanty Vagabundo or the twin brothers of piracy, Cheers and Clan McGregor. The mere mention of their names inspires laughter and much more…- Now, the talented Lovell de la Raconteur will present hints about individual chosen for this month’s coveted Toilet Seat Award! One of The Fools Gazette’s top-tier awards. Not to be unkind but there are some faces which deservedly fit a within the oval shape frame of a toilet seat. An ideal frame for a fool’s face but more so, his or her nasty character! The unnamed individual in this report, is richly deserving of the coveted Toilet Seat Award. For clarity, it’s an unused toilet seat, new, not one that’s been used or recycled…- As for the individual who received the coveted Toilet Seat Award, when she heard a rumor, she was going to be the awardee, she so taken by the honor, she asked if she could first sit on the seat, use it. Accommodations were made. We don’t know whether she did number 1 or 2 or both - along with some windy sound effects! Nor is it our business or anyone else’s. Private time is private time. After some tidying up - the seat was ready for framing! Face and seat came together like a gallery portrait. One worthy of being hung in Loquentium Mendacium, Liars Chapel in Latin.
Now here are the hints as to who the honoree is! First hint: her blemished complexion shows the stress of Facial Constipation. A medical term, more commonly known as Facial Anxiety. Ouch! That’s got to hurt! With the artfulness of a cosmetologist, she tries in vain to use her black shoe polish colored hair as a distraction, a makeover, coverup. Doesn’t work. Second hint: she has an insatiable proclivity for lying! Which is only exceed by her voracious appetite for lying! Third hint: she suffers from thought-congestion. Which is one reason why she often sidesteps questions with, “The Thought Escapes me!” This next hint may be a giveaway as too her identity: she’s a founding member of, The Sisterhood of Liars! Currently, she holds the undistinguished title, Queen of Avowed Liars. Last hint: she effects the appearance of being smart but isn’t! Often says as a diversionary tactic, “Hold that thought!” Well, there’re the hints. If a face comes laughingly to mind - you’ve got it! All the best!
