I accidentally posted under another comment before, so hopefully my pardner will be able to see this better:
Whatta ya think, @whatageek? I'm thinking Option 3, but that's just because eating a rat doesn't sound appealing to me, even though it would probably be fine. Option 4 could also be good, so we can get away from this gunfight a-brewin'.
I'm not sure why I think this is the Wild West now...
Lol!
@whatageek and I are natural explorers, and have decided to opt for Option 3. He is very concerned since he watched me starve to death last time (as he was lying in a pool of his own blood) so we're off to find the rat's stash!
