Last week was the story of the panty-sniffer in Long Island. Now we learn of the shoe sniffer in Pittsburg.What do folks like to sniff in your town?

In this town, at this time of year, they like to sniff the smell of fireroasting Big Jim green chilis from New Mexico, turning in the hopper over the gas flames, usually 50# at a time, their savory aroma dancing as images of fresh green tamales soon to be savored!!

I can understand a shoe-sniffing fetish. I remember learning how to tie a shoe when I was maybe 3 years old by practicing over and over on my dad's shoes. I remember a warm, somewhat pleasant aroma associated with that activity. Heh.Now this panty-sniffer fetish story seems weird to me. It would be ONE thing if the guy had removed the panties from the hamper. He didn't. He removed them from the dresser drawer. Who stores used underwear in a dresser drawer? I dunno. Personally, I can't imagine ANYTHING in my dresser drawers that has an odor outside of Bounce or Downey.

'Sumer, it's not uncommon to associate a memory with an odor. In fact, it's quite common. How many of us spent some time with grandparents in their homes? There was always an "old people" odor associated with that experience. *I* noticed it growing up, and my kids noticed it when they spent time at MY folks' home. If the experience was a good one, the odor isn't associated with anything but fun, pleasure, love, etc. If the experience was a bad one, the odor is associated with those unpleasant memories.Personally, I enjoy the aroma of baking bread. It's one of the odors that "lives up" to the anticipation. Popcorn has a pleasant odor while popping in a theatre, but the reality doesn't live up to the anticipation, IMO. I feel the same way about those cinnamin bun places in the mall. One can detect the delectable aroma of the buns cooking, but once purchased, they just don't live up to the anticipation. There's a gas station nearby that bakes cookies. I LOVE to enter the station while the cookies are baking. I mentioned once to the clerk working there that those cookies SMELL delicious, but that I bet the cookie doesn't live up to expectations. He replied, "Ya know, you're right!"
