Thanks for the memories, guys. Like Foxtail said previously, sense of smell is the most important associated with memories.

Mr Tom, Jerkins lotions always seemed to have the smell of chocolate covered cherries. Could be just my "magination" !

Oooh, that's cold. Did you use that little tidbit as blackmail against her in the future?

I imagine that's a vision that would stick with you for awhile...

She probably doesn't even remember what you looked like, her attention was elsewhere at the time.
She could've made a bad boy out of you.

We had fun with this thread a couple years back. There's so many new folks on here, I thought it would be cool to "bump" it up so you can all share.
Olfactory memories are very strong. I happened to smell an odor just yesterday that I hadn't smelled in many, many years. I'm unsure of the actual source, but I happened to smell it as I was walking by a car as someone got out. Aftershave? Cologne? Something inside his car? That scent had been burned into (literally) my memory as a child! I don't know what I was actually smelling, but the scent reminded me of making Creepy Crawlers on a Thingmaker!! If you were born in the later 60's, I'm sure you have no idea what I am talking about, lol. Young whippersnappers! Info on Wiki here.
If you have anything to add, knock yourself out. If not, just enjoy it. Jean

The smells of hot oil & gasoline from my high school hot rod. Also the smells of sage & creosote bushes in the desert. Even now, almost 20 years since my last visit to the California desert, if I think about it I can still smell the desert smells.
And going even further back, the smell of my mothers home made saurkraut & dill pickles in the 10 gallon crocks at the bottom of the basement stairs in my early childhood home in Ohio.

The smell of ink from copies and old books.
And the smell of cherry wood chips and gojo hand cleaner.

Don, I remember you had Larry send you a bit of creosote bush, to bring you back in time, remind you of your years here so long ago. Don't remember if he let Goober (rest his soul) pee on it before sending it to you, or if Jake got to initiate it when it arrived, lol. (Often think about Larry and Diane, hope they are doing well.)
And the desert after it rains has got to be the most wonderful smell there is!
