But just what are bad smells? It depends on how you react to them. I have a real tough time with most perfumes--they smell awful to me and if I am exposed to them for any length of time, I get a headache and upset stomach. I have often wondered just why anyone would INTENTIONALLY want to make themself smell so repulsive...but then some people actually like those smells.

When one of my daughters was in high school, she got some perfume that smelled to me like dirty socks. She could not understand why I demanded (and I seldom demanded anything) that she not EVER spray that junk in my house again. It finally ended up in the burning barrel.

On the other hand, new tires smell great, cow manure does not have an objectionable odor, most wood has a pleasing odor.

When I was a kid, I thought the gasoline they sold then smelled good. It doesn"t anymore. Diesel always smelled bad.

I love the smell of baking bread, coffee being made, and lots of other things.

Most cheese smells to me like something that should be flushed down the toilet rather than eaten. Parmesan smells a lot like vomit to me, and I could not possibly eat anything with Parmesan or any other stinky cheese as an ingredient. Yet lots of people LOVE many kinds of cheese. Not me.

But I just cannot be around perfumes. Maybe it has something to do with their being artificial scents. Most shampoos, laundry detergents and hand soaps have scents that I need to avoid. To me, they STINK.

So the least amount of scented products possible in my house, and very little cheese. I don"t use a respirator to avoid smells, I just move away from them. We are all different, and probably our perceptions of smells are all different. Good luck avoiding the ones that bother you!

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
