Kroil. It smells like success. It is the lubricant that WD40 wishes it could be, a penetrating oil that doesn't evaporate and leave you fucked. It is one of my earliest somatic memories, the odor of my grandfather's shop, where I first learned to take apart cars at the age of four. And the sound of the pressure cooker, with the weight augmented to increase the pressure to account for our 7200 ft elevation. That's beans, cooking.
