Eat the dead?  Okay, I don't have that problem, but one similar.  I have a
freaky chinese guy who likes to decapitate the walkin' dead, if possible, &
put the dead(s) in a pickle jar to carry around.  Let's see, his first two
"fish" as he calls them, escaped, the second set were stolen (these weren't
"fish," but being how they were a man & woman, he dressed them up as
honeymooners, he with a tophat & cravat, she with a bonnet),  & now we are
currently on set number three.  He has voluntarily taken the "Loco"
hindrance at my suggestion.  Oh! Forgot; he is also trying to teach them
Chinese.  So, you can imagine how our adventures run when I have them take a
train, or coach somewhere, he brings out his picnic basket of heads & starts
yelling at them in Chinese.  Of course, he hasn't brought them out to show
to the public (yet), but seeing a large Chinese man yelling at a basket does
start people wondering.
