----------------------------------------
From RFC 7159: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159
~~~
   A JSON text is a serialized value.  Note that certain previous
   specifications of JSON constrained a JSON text to be an object or an
   array.
~~~

This means that the following should be valid:
`JSON.parse('1')
JSON.parse('this is a string')
`
However, they each currently return a JSON::ParserError:
`A JSON text must at least contain two octets!`
or
`757: unexpected token at 'this is a string'`
