my house smells...

smells "like a shop"
That's a compliment, isn't it?
BTW, set a small record of sorts this morning. Had the CNC mill, CNC lathe,
bandsaw, and manual mill all smokin' chips at the same time. I was as busy
as a three pecker billy goat feedin' parts.

My dad used to say if you don't draw blood atleast once in every major
project something was going to go haywire for sure.

I remember my old man coming home from work 40+ years ago (when I was a
young kid) with that "maching shop smell", a neat memory.

It beats the hell out of that potpourri stuff. Women (wife included)
like that stuff in bathrooms and around. Drives me nuts. I'd rather
smell crap.
One of my last projects in r&d was working on some perfume
compounding. When they tried to aquaint us old technical types with
marketing cosmetics, etc., one of the exercises was to smell a bunch
of that crap and name our favorite scent. I told them mine was beef.
That pretty much labelled me a curmudgeon.

I was never in perfume R&D but I was once included in a similar focus
group. I said the scent that I recalled most was the coppery aroma of
fresh-spilt arterial blood. Didn't say I liked it but the
"researchers" overlooked that minor distinction and skipped my input.
Research is as about as pure as banking and politics anymore, ain't
that a hell of a note.

I love the smell of cutting fluids in the morning: It smells like fun!

hot, sexy and utterly georgous gal was behind me sniffing..and I turned
around and she blushed and smiled. Asked if I worked in a machine
shop? I replied as I puffed out my chest.."yes, I fix those machines".
She smiled up at me and said "I thought so!...you smell just like my
dad!"
Then..."He is 80 now"

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.
This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
