Once when I was maybe 4 or 5 years old I found a metal part on the floor of the room where I was taking a nap. Being naturally scientific minded even as a kid, I stuffed the chunk of steel up my nose to see what would happen.

Predictably, I lost it. The metal part that is. No amount of digging would bring it out. It was gone, literally to parts unknown.

Then I had to cough, and after a few tries I hacked it out into my hand, from my *mouth*. I was amazed. I layed back on my mattress, about to finally fall asleep, just wondering...how the heck...
