So what happens if you can't smell. Neither my nose nor my sense of smell work anymore due to tramatic head injuries.
The Nice thing I can say about it is: "No Body Offends Me!"
Wow, and I'm sorry for you for that! That was another NPR story I heard, about a lady who lost her sense of smell, and what she had to go through losing it and also regaining it.
A little sense taken so for granted, and it is almost soley for pleasure(eating, smelling) we can live without it but it is really nice to have. Its good that I have it, my sense of smell tells me to when to take a shower, although usually a while after my wife tells me...

I make sure that I balance out the NPR listening with FOX News so that I don't go mad...er I mean liberal
