The smell of the rodeo is good for me. A real mixture of horse ****, bull ****, dirt, sweat, and leather.

What a fragrantly butch cocktail. Bottled, it could be a winner with real sporting men

A certain set of smells I associate with Mexico: The smell of chapates being cooked on a little brazier, mingled with dust and the hint of camomile flowers...
I can smell it in my dreams.

No, Ge, but you can have all my oreos that smell so delicious and taste so good with cold milk. Now there's a suit seeking to ban kids from eating them because of trans fat or some such thing.

Actually it's the stuff in the middle that's causing the freakout. I just read the story. That's where the partially hydrogenated nightmare lurks.
You don't think some folks are worried about all the wrong things now, do you?

Beedle, If I don't worry about the wrong things, I'll never get a chance to get it right.

Not with a bang but a worry:)

:wink: In truth Letty, I have never figured you for the worryin' sort.
And say, did you know that if you carefully rearrange the letters of T.S.Eliott it spells toilets.

Well, beedle, Prufrock is not the type of love song that I prefer, but actually, those women talkin about Michaelangelo know a good ceiling painter when they see one.
BIG RANT:
first the seat belts; then the cigarettes; then the oreos. Next it will be fast food because someone has declared that it's just as addicting as heroin... See?

A chocolate manufacturer in the UK is in trouble because it started a campaign encouraging people to collect tokens from the wrappers of it's chocolate bars that could then be traded in for schools sports equipment. State Nurse and her cohorts decided that we would all get fat, including the kids, for eating to many chocky bars.

Oh, No, John. I thought I was on Bo's Soap Box
Let's see. I need to redeem myself. Here's another favorite smell:
The smell of clean hair and pure soap with no perfumes. It's just difficult to improve on mother nature.

Hi John!
Another smell that is faves in my book is the musty smell of an old bookstore.
And if there's a crusty old proprietor in tweeds with a pipe, then fusty gets mingled in.
