Now 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?

I bit through the end of my tongue when I was a nipper. The last inch or so at the end was hanging off by a tiny strip of flesh and flapping around disturbingly. I was sent to the school nurse and inspected and sent away with nary a pat on the head, just the advice to 'keep still for the rest of the day'. (Easier said than done for an eight year old.)
Sure enough by the time I went home about five hours later it had healed up. Amazing.
