I saw this great EX+++++++++ camera at Ritz today. Its
a C*n*n and all it needs are a few things to make it a
wonderful performer. It needs a back, a front, a new
circutboard, a shutter, and a prayer. I'm sure I can
bamboozle the salesman into letting me have it for a
song and then I'll sell it for 10,000,000 dollars on
Yahoo auctions where they've never heard of C*n*n as a
vintage collectable!
