Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for February 19, 2024

Why, it’s like he’s trapped in a box!

I’d like to see him stage a break-out!!!

He should feel right at home.

Now, I’m going to lean into the wind, and leave!

Don’t mime me.

He’s trained all of his life for this.

Did you know that mimes can use pay-phones for free?

Reminds me of the scene in “Support Your Local Sheriff” where the sheriff throws Joe Danby in the jail cell without bars.

I cannot recall ever actually seeing a street mime in person.

One thing seems obvious. Won’t be a snitch. Good idea.

Just don’t make any sudden moves….

The mess hall is really quiet there

Why does a mime prison have a phone on the wall?

What will he say to defend himself?

Imprisoned in your own Mime. Only tradition is holding you back.

Can Mimes hear silent dog whistles?

“…so just shut up.”

Reminiscent of a pane in the glass.

He’s innocent. He wasn’t able to plead not guilty and there wasn’t an interpreter available.

What a pane!

The phones are a waste of taxpayer money, but then, what else is new?

Oh, there are some really sad clowns in solitary at that prison. In Stir, nobody can see you scream.

Ha! Glass half empty kind of guy. What’s really sad is, he’ll never finish his sentence because he refuses to begin it.

Mar"cell" Marceau.

How mimes get years of “in the box” practice.

He’d do well at Alcatraz.
