I dig tiny caves, and fill them with precious metals.
I build bridges of silver and I make crowns of gold. 
Most people need me eventually, but many are afraid of me.

I don't see why not.  Meg said you can post after 48 hours if the person who's up forgets about it, and it's been almost 48 hours.

Sorry to jump in on you, but this one's been rattling around in my head for a while:

I can be hot and spicy,
or smooth and sweet
or maybe a funny flavor.

I may be tiny,
but I last a long time;
wrapped up in a blanket of paper.

*I know it's easy, I just had to put it out there.

That host on the morrow lay withered and strown.

I cause property damage.
I kill thousands.
I'm extremely addictive.
I'm toxic in large quantities.
I pollute every river, stream, sea, and ocean.
Yet I am used every day.

What am I?

Addictive though  ??? And polluting?

Hormones or insecticides?

Water??

You got it!

in medical terminology, an addiction to a substance means that the body must obtain more of that substance in order to function.

pollute probably isn't as close to the correct definition as I would like, but the idea is that water is polluting water.

A call made between two corner offices (more accurately, not the call, but the voices, because they aren't voices anymore while they're being transmitted in-between).
Common sense (beaten and raped in the corner).
