Most of them were from what we referred to as the "Barefoot Triangle" in the ER when I was a resident. It is an area bordered by Splendora, New Caney and Porter, NE of Houston, TX. This was in reference to their being barefoot on arrival. Trust and believe you do not want to walk around an emergency room barefoot
They made a lot of crystal meth in Splendora.

OK, as far as I know, my grandmother would not be considered the type of one of the people from the "Barefoot Triangle" nor do I believe she ever cooked any crystal meth at all.
What I do know is she swore WD-40 eased her arthritic elbow. Saw her apply it many a time.
I wondered about it, have never tried it, and thought she was somewhat unique in her use of it... guess I need to spray my knee to see for myself!
