+==== Edit Another Profile
+
+Older apps may follow different patterns, but RESTful apps (which is what's going on here) often just change methods (and include a body or not)
+to perform different functions.
+
+Use that knowledge to take the same base request, change its method, path and body (payload) to modify another user's (Buffalo Bill's) profile.
+Change the role to something lower (since higher privilege roles and users are ususally lower numbers). Also change modify the
+user's color to 'red'.

+=== Playing with the Patterns
+
+==== View Another Profile
+
+View someone else's profile by using the alternate path you already used to view your own profile. Use the 'View Profile' button
+and intercept/modify the request to view another profile. Alternatively, you may also just be able to use a manual GET request with
+your browser.
