    April,
    The spouts in the keyboard are there just in case an idea ’sprouts up’ in the users’ head.
    The fellow with the prophylactics is none other than the world renowned tribal healer, and condom dispenser, ‘Carlos Condom’ who has a half-sister ‘Carla Condom’. Her condom-costume is much more elaborate as she attracts more consumers than Carlos.
    The fellow on the bed is none other than the famous Aztec, King Chiclayo, who recently came back to life, as a Buddhist monk disobeyed China’s recent policy of ‘non-reincarnation’ law. If you look at the picture closely, you’ll notice that the monk on the right has a towel, which in actuality is a portkey so the rest of the monks can disapparate.
    The fellow in the suit and tie is from the well known TV series, ‘Hawaii Five-0′.

    –Since you were having fun, I thought I would as well. Clever and crazy pictures. Enjoyed it. Thanks.
