Three pleasant links:
Education
In a world where civilized, ethical human beings could coexist peacefully and sustain an Internet--not that I'm saying we live or ever will live in such a world, actually--what would education look like?
Music
Europeans attempt a classic song...
Scent
Unlike powder and paint, I never took any vow not to wear perfume. I like perfume, myself--in small reasonable doses, of course. Some people overdo it, or expect perfume to compensate or not Doing Number Three. But a small judicious hint of scent? Why not? This is why not. When working as a home nurse I had patients whose reactions to flowery (and some fruity) scents were like Judy Dykstra-Brown's. I didn't like to walk in and watch a patient begin to droop, visibly, until person finally asked, "Are you by any chance...wearing any...perfume?"
"Well, not perfume, on this job, but a little underarm deodorant..."
"I...thought so. Oh please, could you go and wash it off!"
I've not given up my underarm deodorants, nor my scented soaps. Unscented soap has a scent of its own that is not very nice. But, reflecting on the fact that there's likely to be at least one perfume-sensitive person in every crowd, I have stopped buying cologne.
