My wife grew up in Dallas also, but never heard it called that. All of our parents grew up in east Texas. I guess you just had to be "lucky" to know about monkey blood.

(You know about monkey blood, I know about sweet gum trees!) I too am thinking mercurochrome. Do they still even make it?

I remember that I much preferred Monkey blood to iodine or merthiolate because it didn't sting and burn. My mom always said "If it doesn't burn, it's not doing any good". I won't talk about the senior moments because I have far too many of them these days!john wingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02424569617092812402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2967955433805290702.post-68386505274201701292011-12-28T22:38:59.267-06:002011-12-28T22:38:59.267-06:00I remember mercurochrome.

The other day I was carrying some packages and tried sticking my key in the trunk, so I could put them inside. Key didn't work in lock. I got all upset. Tried the car doors, nothing. I didn't know WHAT to do. Then I looked down at the license plate. WRONG NUMBERS. WRONG CAR. Mine was parked a couple spaces away. LOL Take care. Hope you have a healthy and happy New Year.TARYTERREhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14620999913159718018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2967955433805290702.post-88612729666183871132011-12-28T20:34:17.766-06:002011-12-28T20:34:17.766-06:00I guess Monkey blood must be a south Texas saying ...I guess Monkey blood must be a south Texas saying for people to tell their kids as John and I were both born and raised here.
