    I didn´t smell anything. The gods have blessed me with no sense of smell.

    Oh that? That’s the sick people baking in the goat pen with their unwell goldfish. Every Thursday at 6:00. Don’t know about the jet fuel though.

    Adding the goat pen was my idea. Nobody could figure out what was missing, but everybody agreed that it definitely needed something, and I remembered goat pen. The rest is history!

    I think I’ve olfactorially covered everything on the list except maybe mulberry and dead goldfish (do other kinds of dead fish count?).

    I was bleeding the brakes on my daughters van, and an awful smell came from the brake fluid. I just couldn’t identify it, not that it was something to remember or write about.

    I lived in a rural area for 32 years, unincorporated and away from town ordinances. Occasionally the wind would waft such scents our way. Most pungent were odors from a large pig enclosure about three miles away; and a veal calf barn about half-a-mile away. And some farmers spread cow manure on their fields. That’s part of life living amongst farmers. Most offensive were those who burned trash and didn’t care where the smoke drifted.

    Ever since that fling with Medusa, he has unwillingly shed his cranial shell on a monthly basis. His displeasure and discomfort at this event is wrought in echos as a mallet to a bell, sounding alarm and announcing its own foul demise. It’s contractions releasing an odorous quivering imprint, not easily forgotten.

    What ho?

    An olfactory delight, a connoisseur’s expert opinion, a former oinophile’s expansion into ambient aromatology.

    Yes, yes.

    Caricatures, however, raise an eyebrow or two. Some faux-Perikles wearing his not quite Corinthian helmet (traditionally explained as cosmetic coverage of his exceptionally high forehead)? And the helmet speaks and does the smelling?!

    Surely, this is some 21st century AI conjure-magic!

    The true image here perilously parodied may be seen at the Wikipedia article “Pericles” (sic).

    Per Gaggle’s “translate”:

    The Latin version of the English pronoun “it” can be either of the following: “it”, “illud”, “id”, or “ollud” …!
