Adolescent Odors

 Song 812: This week on the playlist you can hear Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana, written by Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, and you can find an entertaining YouTube video of it by clicking on the title. Around the time the end of the summer of 1991 arrived, so did a musical description of the odor associated with young energy. Early in the year, a hot war with Iraq had occurred, and I felt relieved that it had ended fairly soon and that not many U.S. veterans had to sacrifice their lives for the conflict, so even if they had to load up on guns and bring their friends, only a small percentage of those troops had to get buried. Maybe when a hot war becomes a possibility, then With the lights out, it's less dangerous, and whenever you ask a country's leader about the real reason for starting a war, the response you'll usually get is a denial, a denial, a denial, and a denial.
