Dear etaoin: do you have a gender problem? You seem to be having a period.

Dear etaoin: but you are confused. Mimes may be silent,
but they are not invisible.

I won't ague that I'm confused, but how else to be lexicographically mimish but with invisibility?

I have to admit AWADtalk lacks pictorial power. One mime scene I'd like to have seen was Ed Wynn, hiding under W.C.Fields' billiard table, making faces at the audience, until laughs in wrong places clued W.C.Fields in, and he used butt end of cue stick to minimize the mimery. The audience liked it so well, producers wanted act repeated, but Ed Wynn declined.

Besides, if he was invisible, how'd you know it was he?
