My brother....was afflicted....after a stint in South East Asia.....with a peculiar wart....common only to Bird and Man....no amount of medical application could relieve him the malody....and then an Uncle in Idaho (whom we were visiting)....proclaimed the merits of "GRASSHOPPER TOBACCO JUICE" ....(you sqeeze the captured grasshopper ....above the abdomim .... and before the thorax....and a peculiar brown fluid issues from the mouth...or said grasshopper)
Jumpin' Jimminy Crickets....if those warts didn't disappear by the end of a week.
true story.... it did work...
Folk medicine all right by me...Folk medicine is the way to be.
