[QUOTE="Trout Bum, post: 127538, member: 433"] I rarely, if ever, smoke in public. But one time I was at the post office mailing a package of various tobacco samples to a fellow Brother... so there I am in line, and I get to the window and proceed to putting the finishing touches on the package. The mail person at the window (a woman) commented on the smell... I said it was pipe tobacco. She picks up the box, puts her nose to it, and inhales deeply, then says, "Wow that reminds me of my father -- I LOVE that smell!" Well, the woman in line behind me then says that [i]her[/i] father used to smoke a pipe, and could she please smell the box... so then she smells it and says she LOVES the smell too. At hearing this, another mail employee behind the counter asked to smell it, he loved it, then two more people in line behind me asked if they could smell it. Everyone was commenting on how great it smelled, how it reminded them of this person or that. During all of this, the original sniffer, the mail lady, was actually tearing up, because the odor had apparently brought back strong memories from when she was a little girl. It was a totally surprising, very awesome experience! [/QUOTE]
