    Daily Telegraph has a nice tidbit of info. Here is a quote,

    "HAVING trouble keeping your nipples erect? One quick squirt from a can of hairspray and you're in business.

    Apparently it works, although not all readers may harbour the desire to walk around with permanently erect nipples."
