			Many phones are sold in a "with camera"  and "without camera" configuration -- precisely because corporations don't want cameras on their site.  Not point in making it *easier* for employees or visitors to snap a quick photo of some delicate, company sensitive info. So they quite probably gave him that phone on purpose.   |

			Nah... Blackberries just don't have cameras. I don't know about the new models, though.

 Hm. Not sure I have a mandolin. I have a nice Japanese biwa, though. It would go well with the monkey mask. And the Rúyì Jīngū Bàng, for that matter.  Yes, I think there's some retractable anatomy involved. If you'd like a loincloth or something (or maybe a tshirt, "I heart OZ"?) that can also be arranged.  Only 3 fingers... kind of hard to do the Vulcan sign. Hm.... | |

			/wikipedia > Rúyì Jīngū Bàng > unknown > google > wikipedia "Ruyi Jingu Bang"   dress him in a toga, like me !! (then he could have *several* retractable parts, in different places) |

			Why would you want to ban Joes?  I've known several Joes and they're fine folks -- you know just your average Joes .... oh, wait, banjos!  Nevermind:  yes, let's not have any of those, this is a family forum, after all.  Which also means that accordions are right out.    |

			I've been in a few bands, some have included banjo players. One of my favorite jokes at their expense: Q. Why don't you see any banjoes on Star Trek? A. It's set in the future. |

			But they're so darned tolerant ... as long as you're just like them.    Prowly why I never seemed comfortable out there, now that I think about it. |
