I was reading the letter from the lady who is very upset with the state of her nails due to her lifelong nail-biting. I was a nail-biter for a little over 50 years, until my wife suggested that I should come with her to the nail salon when she was going for one of her biweekly visits.
I praise the nail lady and her ability to make an ugly, unpleasant physical feature into one that I can show off with pride. I would hope and suggest that your reader would try this, maybe with some fancy touch like glitter or a special nail design. This way, she will enjoy looking at her nails and have no desire to destroy them.Here’s a hint for those who have a fingernail-biting habit.

I also told her that I might make my choice by whom was chosen to be their vice president.
