12/23/2004 Entry: "Fred's Inde-scent Stories"

I really like scented candles, scented oils (on a light-bulb ring), or pot pourri. I'm not a fan of inscense, though; I think the smoke bugs my nose. So I was mildly interested in the Scent Stories gadget being marketed this year, but not enough to buy one. Fred of Fragments From Floyd imagined his own scent story from an earlier time in his life: "And thus, my first supplemental InDeScent Story was born. I think I will call it 'Overnight in Dorm C'. Eventually, I'll model my new disk on one like, oh, 'Mountain Trail' that you can see demonstrated here. (You really must view the demo to understand my new disk!) I'll have sound effects just like the ones on the demo link to go along with each of the five aroma selections. Some day, my disk will be on the clickable menu between 'Wandering along the Shore' and 'Strolling Through the Garden.' Just you wait. For now, here are the selected fragrances for 'Dorm Room', first new disk: Aroma One: A Hundred Dirty Socks. After all, how can you expect freshmen to spend time doing laundry when there are frat parties every night except Tuesday? Let'em pile up. There are better ways to do laundry! This aroma will connect you via olfactory memory to another fragrance: Locker Room, coming on a future disk!"
