A friend at work today mentioned the concept of nose tampons, and at this point in the course of my head cold, I would like to show my support for this idea. Granted, the strings hanging from the nostrils would not be so attractive, but when it's a choice between constantly wiping your nose with tissue that feels more and more like sandpaper as time goes by, and the strange sight of strings hanging from your nose, I'll go for strange any day.

Damn, it would appear that this is not a new idea.
