Napoleon's peanus.

-- The owner of Napoleon's penis died this month in Englewood,
-- N.J. John K. Lattimer, who'd been a Columbia University
-- professor and a collector of military (and some macabre)
-- relics, also possessed Lincoln's blood-stained collar and
-- Hermann Gvring's [sic] cyanide ampoule.

I'm not sure whether you "scrolled" with your "mouse" down to the bit
that said "visitors peered into a vitrine [1] to see something that
looked like a maltreated shoelace, or a shriveled eel."

OTOH, maybe you did see that. You're allowed, AFAIK.



[1] That's parlay-voo for "window".
