Um.. a probability indeed exists for photons to deviate from a straight line path. This is the central tenet of Quantum Electrodynamics. Obviously, the reason we think light travels in a straight path is because overwhelmingly photons portray that behavior. On the level of quanta, though, they travel whichever way they damn well please. I hightly recommend reading QED by Nobel winner Richard Feynman.
Well, actually.. it's the first step towards bringing Mark Danielewski's novel, _House of Leaves_, to life. Pretty soon they'll find a way for houses to be bigger on the inside than they are on the outside.
