I can pick up traces of any unpleasant smell like a bloodhound. Lots of perfumes gives me instant headaches. There was a woman who wore Calvin Klein's Obsession to a 7:30am lecture one semester in college. 7:30AM, for god's sake! I sat as far away from her as humanly possible and still couldn't stand it. I blame that woman for the fact that I stopped going to the lecture about mid-semester and almost failed the class. (It had nothing to do with the 7:30am start time and the subject - physics. It was all perfume.) When pregnant, I was ruled by my nose. I had to leave work one day because the smell of my boss microwaved leftover Thai food for his lunch. I turned pale, broke out in a sweat and had to take a sick day. It's really a pretty annoying super power if you ask me. Next time I want super strong eyesight or kung fu grip like GI Joe.

Which is fresh - seared steak or in sushi! Oh, don’t get me wrong, I love me some tuna – in an appropriate delivery vehicle. Which is fresh – seared steak or in sushi!

Great source of protein. After a good anaerobic workout I eat a package straight. Tuna is good for you, and is also delicious! Great source of protein.

I've always had a sensitive sense of smell and I tell you it's a handicap sometimes. Dad says that people generate these smells and have no idea how obnoxious they are. He says if that smell were a sound like banging pots together someone would notice and understand but it just falls on "deaf noses". BWAHAHAHA!
