The guy below just stood there with his front foot up in the air. How can they stand like that for long periods? When I went over and dropped $2 in his tip bucket, he said thank you, but I was watching and his lips didn't move. Maybe he's not a mime, but is called something else?
The image below shows what the mime calls a "Living Statue." I thought she was a female, but it was a he. You can see two tourists checking him out.
When I tried to get a close-up of the statue, some (nitty) old guy jumped in the photo.
First two images by MOJO with my P&S. The young lady in photo No. 2 took the third one.
Nice to see you in one of your own pics.
ReplyDeleteLiked.
ReplyDeleteNice pics. If you ask me you're looking less and less like a nitty old man. Must be the nice smile.
ReplyDelete+1 for the cards hat.
ReplyDeleteAh, in that last photo: which one was the mime, again?
ReplyDeleteHeh, heh. Love mimes. Usually. Sometimes they seem haughty. These seem nice.
I think you ought to frame the last shot.
What does "nitty" mean?
@Jacob: nitty is a poker term to describe someone who only plays strong hands. That sounds good, but is often used to describe a player in a bad way -- too conservative, for example. I use it as a joke because a lot of older people play that way, and I'm, um, well not young any more, lol.
ReplyDeleteFrom another nitty old man those pics are great. We have a couple mimes who frequent our waterfront one is a copper cowgirl who does the statue thing. They are great.
ReplyDeleteA mime is a terrible thing to waste.
