Welcome Dear Readers! You might be wondering why I’ve been absent from Friday Fictioneers of late. The truth is I was lost at the dry cleaners. They never did find me. I’ve been replaced with a clone. I’m just like my original self except I smell more like chemicals than I used to.
And now onto some Friday Fictioneer 100-word fiction fun! Hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields-Addicted to Purple. Today’s really cool picture was provided to us by Dawn Q. Landau over at Tales of the Motherland.

A Day at Mermen Realty
A million for this? You gotta be kidding!
It was Poseidon’s Hollywood-crowd hideaway. There’s Hollywood history everywhere! See this? That’s not just any stain. That’s where Ethel Merman threw up seaweed pate! And lookee! Here’s where Darrel Hannah carved her initials.
In the toilet seat?
That’s another good feature –indoor plumbing!
But there’s only a seat.
You’re half-way there, then, aren’t you?
But there’s no roof?
Roof schmoof! It’s beachfront.
And the beach is . . . .
It appears when the tide’s out.
A million huh?
Listen, you could get $998,999 for the Ethel Merman stain alone.
Okay Zeus. It’s a deal!

Until next time . . . I love you
