After my recent facebook antics I got to thinking (insomnia has really kicked in) truth is a bit like salt:

  • It is bad luck to tread on it 
  • It keeps the slugs and leeches away
  • Too much of it is harmful to your health
  • Not enough and you cease to work correctly
  • If rubbed in can either remove or injure some of the thickest of skins
  • Can be used to make things boil over, or melt even the coldest of objects
  • In times past despite it’s wide availability many many people have fought over and died for it
