I drive past a giant landfill on my way into work each day. It smells pretty foul.

Hah! You are right about the smell, lisah.

I could have sworn my friend was lying! That's totally something he would make up a story about.

Where I lived in Greensboro NC smelled like cedar and coffee roasting. That was nice.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
