I just got a new CD, and in opening it, I happened to catch a whiff of the jewel case and liner notes.

That smell! That wonderful smell! It's been years, but I'll never forget it! It's the smell of a well-spent $2.45 plus tax, the smell of new and wide-open possibilities...It was the smell of new Magic: The Gathering cards!

Man, I miss 1994.

I still play magic in a pseudo sense. I go to sealed events sometimes in Niles, and I still huff at the packs when I open them. People there typically have two reactions. The first is utter puzzlement at what it is I'm doing. The second is a knowing sympathetic kind of look. Sometimes people from the second group join me in out olfactory stimulation.
