Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Scratch 'N Sniff Blogging

.

I just stepped out onto the cabin deck and the aroma of grilled lamb chops wafted to me in such an overpowering way I IMMEDIATELY thought, I WISH I could post that aroma on my blog.

Scratch 'n sniff blogging - - - when do you suppose blogger will offer us THAT option????

I keep dreamin'

Jojo said...: I've long been waiting for someone to come up with a way to add smell to computers. Several times I've tried to purchase fragrances online but really now - who would do that? Seriously, can you select a fragrance based on a description that reads fresh citrus scent with a hint of orange blossoms, or musky, amber, woodsy. Wouldn't it be great to be able to scratch and sniff!!!; July 21, 2010 at 8:44 PM
Brenda said...: That's like Emeril Lagasse's (sp?)Smellovision! That'd be too fun, wouldn't it? Ya never know!; July 21, 2010 at 9:24 PM
Kristin - The Goat said...: My husband was with me when I went to pick up some photos and as we were leaving he said - "I want to eat dinner tonight at the place that smells so good!"

I didn't smell it (totally stuffed up nose) but he told me it was grilled steak he was just sure. So we went to our appointment and then went back to Ted's Montana Grill for dinner. He got a grilled steak :)

I would turn off the smell option on my computer since I'm allergic to most fragrances, but I'd turn it on for the smell of food. Yummmy!!

You have my permission to invent that, Keetha :)

Jojo said...: I was previously a reference librarian and I still do some trademark searching (I love doing trademark searches). Anyway, I noticed this morning that there is a class or category for:

Interior design services in the nature of aroma consulting services in the selection and use of aromas for hotels, casinos, resorts, conference facilities, retail stores, sports and fitness centers, spas, health care facilities, residential buildings and private residences
