'Once upon a time, long, long ago'
'far, far away, and all that jazz...'
Anna arrived dressed as a banana.
By having pupils painted on her eyelids, Anna could feign enthusiasm while catching up on sleep.
And Michelangelo painted on his back.
'lillypads'
'frolicking field'
Geoff and Josh stood perfectly still, while Anna's body was slowly rotated via Lazy Susan.

Goldie Hawn in 'Laugh-In.'
Josh, Shelley, Anna, Geoff.

Shelley was reading a funny joke written on Anna's shoulder blade.
Rinsing off with a bottle of Poland Spring.
