Wood of aloes is bitter, hence my choice for the title. It’s not what we think of as aloe plants now – they aren’t woody. But in old books (like the 100+ year old copy of Sinbad the Sailor I was looking at just before I wrote this) you’ll find references to the wood of aloes as being valuable.

That’s cuz yer lookin’ at the tail lights. Try looking at the headlights instead. 😉
I think it’s safer to be looking at the tail lights!
*hugs* No worries – here’s to doing other things until the words all come out in a rush!

Was that really supposed to be wood from a species of Aloe, or did I miss something?
