Let's start today with a few nose idioms: cut off your nose to spite your face,follow your nose,keep your nose out of my business,having your nose out of joint,hard-nosed,no skin off my nose,keep your nose clean,keep your nose to the grindstone,lead by the nose and seeing further than the end of your nose. Now that I have you fixated on noses let me tell you about an unusual animal. The Amazon River dolphin is the only known animal to use their blowhole,which to them is a nostril,for having non-reproductive nasal sex. They will perform this act with either male or female dolphins. Kind of makes a person wonder what dolphins are really chattering about. The moral of the story is...don't look down your nose at other species!
