Blue paint?

1) "Q: What’s red but smells like blue paint? A: red paint I saw this while drunk and watching Myth Busters. Credit goes to the always beautiful Kari Byron."

It could be interesting to investigate if this really applies. "Naturally occurring pigments such as ochres and iron oxides have been used as colorants since prehistoric times." "Most of the pigments in use were earth and mineral pigments, or pigments of biological origin. Pigments from unusual sources such as botanical materials, animal waste, insects, and mollusks were harvested and traded over long distances."

Today's color, however, could smell rather because of the *solvent*, which could make different color have about the same smell. Further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint
