I'm not sure if anyone's interested, but I found a cool website about banana slugs and their penises (peni?). Its actually really interesting, since they are hermaphrodites. Apparently, "when they mate, they insert their penises into eachother at the same time. The unusual thing (in case you don't find that unusual enough!) is that sometimes, but not always, when they finish mating one slug will chew the penis completely off the other."
Check out the following website for more info and pictures (as well as two movies of some banana slugs chewing off each other's goods):
