Missing body partsNow there are some bits of your body you don't mind losing - my dad's just got rid of a kidney stone, my own tonsils once tried to asphyxiate me, and nobody wants warts.
Other bits are more useful - a family friend recently lost an arm... which would be OK if his job wasn't managing dis-armament talks.
What have you lost, and where did you leave it?

Im not one for stereotypes, but............when I was growing up we had an irish odd job man called joe come around to sort our garden out.
Jo wasn't the sharpest tool in the box. One day while mowing the lawn he got fed up of the lawnmower cutting out every time he let go of a safety button on the handle. His bright idea was to tape said button down. This worked brilliantly for around an hour. that is untill the blades ground to a hault.
Forgetting his time saving device he lifted the lawnmower to see why the blades had stopped (he did this by placing his hand under the lawnmower and lifting) once it was raised the blades where free from the stone that had jammed them and lo and behold Joe was now fingerless. A quick jaunt to the hospital and a few hours surgery later and jo had his fingers back.
I saw him again a couple of weeks later still very chipper and sporting two of the biggest tom and jerry bandages in the world.
