I guess I could put tape on my fingers and cure my nail-biting and hair-pulling in one fell swoop. @ fightingwindmills: Sorry that the image caused you to have tobacco urges, but you should check out the album if you've never heard it. It's bliss! @ Alyson: I read somewhere that it’s common in elderly people. I guess I could put tape on my fingers and cure my nail-biting and hair-pulling in one fell swoop.

My grandma did the hair pulling thing. For a while we put scotch tape on her fingers so that they would just slide through her hair and she wouldn't pull any out. She had bald spots from doing it so much. I believe I once said that if you go see a comedy with Brian, be prepared to come back black & blue.
