The first thing I'm sure you're thinking is, WTF? but, yes, I do have really odd thoughts that often pop up in my head, thus, my overwhelming curiosity.

This was kind of difficult to find the answer (doesn't mean I'm not still trying), but I came across some other interesting facts in the meantime about our bodies, courtesy of the MSN health and fitness section. Here are a few good ones:
