As I have said many times in the past, were I to find myself lost for weeks in the woods, cold and starving, I am quite aware of my ignorance regarding which flora are safe to eat and which will result in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0758758\/\" target=\"_blank\">painful, protracted regret-filled death<\/a>. I am also confident that fuzzy Mr. Peter Cottontail hopping down the bunny trail, while cute, is perfectly safe to eat. Safe beats cute (with a rock) every time. A cow is easier to catch but there is a trade off in terms of ease of dispatch. When hungry enough, however, I&#8217;m pretty sure I can rise to the challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0 What color scheme is your bedroom? <\/strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Well, I am not exactly Martha when it comes to home decorating&#8230;.I would have to say the bedroom is &#8216;best intentions&#8217; original wallpaper and &#8216;I think it was once a brown rug&#8217; motif.
