So you need to do something like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() { $("body").bind("click", function(){
alert("wtf");})});
</script>

:: where, when the document is loaded in the browser, some function
is bound to an event on the "body" element(s) -- hopefully there's only
one :-) -- to do whatever.

So by putting this in the head of the document, I can then click any
spot in the window after it loads and get a "wtf" alert...
