Weird BUT true

Three mimes were laid off from SeaWorld — leaving the performers, well, speechless.

The rare species of actors had appeared in the Clyde & Seamore show, where they hammed it up alongside a sea lion and an otter.

More than 300 other workers were also fired due to cutbacks at the Orlando aquatic park.

No, um, word on whether newer, cheaper mimes would replace them.

They’re treating these squirrels like scapegoats!

Scientists now say arctic squirrels play a greater role in climate change than previously thought.

The furry critters release carbon by digging into the frozen ground, a group of researcher­s recently told the American Geophysica­l Union.

Nothing’s more fun than . . . war?

A G.I. Joe “amusement park” is set to open in Florida — complete with sandbagged “foxholes,” a 1971 Army transport truck and water slides.

The theme park’s sign boasts that it will be “a rival to Disney World.”

It will rise next to Big Kahuna’s Amusement and Water Park in Destin, planners said. Wheely dumb! A Nebraska man was busted for drunken driving after cops spotted him motoring on four flat tires with an inflated air bag.

Richard Curzon, 57, allegedly tried to make a break for it — with no air in his tires — after cops pulled him over in Omaha, police sources said.

He was charged with his fourth DUI. Man bit dog. A man chomped a Staffordsh­ire bull terrier after getting into a fight with the pooch’s 45yearold owner in Massachuse­tts, police sources said.

But the man’s bark apparently was worse than his bite. After the struggle, he ran off wearing no shoes, the sources said.
