WE SMELL GOOD

In 1991 Anita Mui (梅艷芳) performed in concert. Seen again, she never looked more "stellar". She wasn't an 'attractive' woman. But all intelligent people look beautiful.

Adventure flicks. Romantic tearjerkers. Comedic roles.
Songs. Stage presence.

There is nothing that binds all these things, no glue that holds them together in a narrative other than a time, a place, a person.



Last night, and several years ago.



I've been smoking old pipes lately, briars from the past which are older than me. And mostly aged tobacco. Things are different, and the world has changed. But we have all become immortal.
Or classic at least.
