Overall: It is currently sitting at 1,475. I do not think that the original hook or ALT1 are all that interesting. I believe ALT2 is the best option. Muttnick (talk) 03:23, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- I support using ALT2. I added the name of the ranch's founder and reworded another line for clarity. It is now up to 1524 bytes of readable prose.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:50, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
