I cut my hand once and this old lady put kerosene on it. It felt good, warm and soothing.
Why did she do that? Has anyone ever heard of this before?

| 4. Another kerosene cure I just heard... |
|
A coworker told me not twenty minutes ago that she used to give her children two drops of kerosene on a spoonful of sugar in order to cure the croup.
I am aghast, I tell you. Aghast.
