I am also delighted to announce that someone has found, photographed, and posted at
found_objects proof that I was not merely engaged in a homo-erotically pornographic hallucination when I saw, several years ago, a fungus shaped like a human penis. The one that I found growing in my front yard was gray, smooth-skinned and about eight inches long, so it was a bit different from the one 
flutttergirl discovered, but this photograph is nevertheless solid (or turgid, if you will) evidence that penis-shaped fungi do exist. Because I did not have a functioning camera at the time, I was unable to provide the proof that I had seen this example of nature's playful manifestation of healthy ribaldry. Those who doubted me can now... sit on it!A hint of mugginess entered the air today, and the gray clouds which crowded the evening sky are expected to bring thunderstorms, perhaps for the next two days. I anticipate them with relish.
