Smells and sounds

Cue the video, you're gonna take a ride on a time machine, whether you wanna go or not. There are things time can't erase.

Where's the video?

You may have missed the point.

Then you ride by a dead skunk, oh! Wait, that’s someone smoking a joint.

You may have missed the point.

Guess I missed it too...

Huh...? Dead skunks, Ghost video's WTF are you talking about

 

[Sidecarbill]

Ok. Without getting graphic here. There a certain smells and or sounds that will trigger a memory from the past . It could be a good memory or something you'd just ask soon stayed buried in your past. For instance there is a certain song that when I hear it, reminds me of my dad's end of life struggles. When that song comes on I see things I don't want to. That's why I say cue the video, because those sights are going to make a visit to your mind that you can't erase.

There are still a lot of huey helicopters around and their sound always takes me back to the bad old days.

Now I get it, it's almost like a trip down memory lane where I had viewed photos on CDs of trikes I had built and then the project trike that was almost completed that went into my bankruptcy and now gone. That was very upsetting. No more of that the CDs were placed in a tote with spare computer parts. I'd rather smell the skunk and have on occasion when somebody hits one on the truck bypass by the apartment complex. There's no sounds or smells involved. Just thinking back in time.

As weird as this may sound, some smells from certain foods remind me of school lunch and I graduated in 71 lol.
