Stewardship

[The Knize]

I guess I should introduce myself as the newlly appointed "steward" to the B&B Cologne forum, even though I feel a little shy about it.

I hope there has been enough written elsewhere on B&B so that I do have to explain what a steward is exactly. I would probably be telling you more than I know if I tried that anyway.

Anyway I am humbled to have the post and am honored to able to be of help any way I can around here to the Mods and Members. I do expect us all to have a lot of fun, and maybe to even learn some things, at least enough to be dangerous!

I very much look forward to it. What I do not know about scents woudl fill volunes!

I'd just like to say that you're an EXCELLENT choice as steward here, Channing. Congraats, it's well deserved. You may be modest, but your knowledge and experience speak for themselves. You've never steered me wrong, and I look forward to hearing more from you.

Thank you Channing for accepting our invitation to steward the cologne forum.

Gents, who know Channing know that he has a good working knowledge of scents. I look forward to working with Channing.

Fake it 'til you make it, I always say! More "snow" to follow, I am sure!

So folks I feel like I know around here. I look forward to getting to know even more.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

I will start my term as steward with a two week long installment seminar on the importance of having fecal/animalic/indolic notes in all manly scents. Or wait, did I do that one already?! And instead of rose scent month we are going to have a series of months dedicated to scents with certain notes so we can all learn the subtle differences: June is fecal in general, July animalic in general, before we move on to graduate level specifc studies of August indolic, September castoreum, October ambergris, concluding in November with the king of all such accords, civet! We will all be hearing things around the house like, "What the heck to I have to do to get someone to change the litter box?" and "That is you? I do not care what place Jickey has in the history of scents, this is not Paris in 1880! In 2010, that scent does not remind us all of a city street on a dewy morning " Then for those who actually have any lingering interest in edts at all by that point and/or who have retained any ability to smell, we move onto more unusual accords. I am thinking of names for thread such as "Is that Bvlgari Black you have on today, or did that discarded tire mountain outside of town catch on fire again?" Or "OMG, is the house on fire or did you get another delivery from CB I Hate Perfume?" "Did you have to change a tire on the way to work or is that K10 you are wearing?"<g>

Yes, and Cuba and LV for everyone!

Yes, and Cuba and LV for everyone!

It sounds like you are reviewing Creed scents.

It sounds like you are reviewing Creed scents.

I would not have thought so, and I would have thought more C&S, but I understand the reference!
