“The Day of the Dead” arrived early to Annapolis, Maryland when the recently departed Libyan leader Omar Gaddafi was seen dining at the Wild Orchid Cafe in a private dining room with a number of odd companions. Gaddafi’s date for the evening was “Evil Incarnate”– a strikingly beautiful but evil woman sitting in a car named “Nate.” Also seem carousing with Gaddafi was a black cat named “Molly Midnight”, also deceased and a favorite companion of the famous U.S. artist Herman Maril.
Gaddafi has been known to pinch a few butts, and there was plenty to pinch on the bottom of Mrs. Cathy, everyone’s memory of that older lady in urban America who was trying to dress like she was capable of exercise during the 1960s. Mrs. Cathy was accompanied by a guy from the Hood, Was it for protection?
Tech weenies will be familiar with Angry Bird, a video character that joined the party and was smitten with Molly the black cat. Was he there as additional security?
Recently arrived from outer space, was a satellite that had fallen to earth, walking arm in arm with Mandy the Manikin. Since Gaddafi needed all the friends he could muster, he was happy to socialize with the two inanimate objects posing as people.
Enjoy the slide show. Can you guess who is who? Thank you to my friends: Susan and Fred Eckert, Catherine and Eric Davidson, Vicki Meade, Pat O’Connell and my wonderful husband Peter.
