"#1 will get you killed by #3." My first reaction also, and it will be a death richly deserved.
"That scenario may sound good while sitting around on the porch drinking a beer but putting it into play is a whole nother thing." "Nother" isn't a word, but I love the way you used it by separating "a" and "nother". Is that a Georgia thing? :)
"Everyone should do themselves a favor and stock up while food is abundant and reasonably priced." I may or may not have done that already.
Its a Georgia thing. :-)
