Your 3 Chosen Items Whilst Marooned on a Desert Island?

Scrap toilet paper. Gimme a towel. (Not for the same purpose, mind you.)

A TV with cable connections (and power!)

A sofa

A bathroom.

My house, a post office, a big boat

electricity, bathroom, and my crafts :-D

Actually, a laptop is pretty much all I would need. Affter communicating with someone to recue me, you people on A2k, would keep me company, while I'm waiting.

LOL, good point Booman ;-)

I can't believe that Patiodog said one of the very
things I was going to say....does that mean that
I have something in common with a slobbering
mutt? Good grief!! Yes, well rather than an
endless supply of toilet tissue, I will go for an
endless supply of baby wipes - I may as well
get the best...after all, wiping my own butt may
well be the high point of some of my days on
this island.
*An endless supply of books, with this and
food and water and peace & quiet, I could be
a very, very happy camper for a long time.
*And last but not least...... my computer hooked
up to an endless connection that never gets
disrupted or terminated or screwed up in any
way whatsoever, along with spare back up
parts and discs and games,
*AND oh crap, what about my PS2 and Crash
Bandicoot - ARE YOU SURE WE CAN'T HAVE FOUR
THINGS??

LOL, I hear ya Babs! I want more ;-)

OOOPS, I forgot all about my significant
other... but, oh well, I guess that's ok,
we do kind of bicker too much anyhow,
I just don't know exactly how I could explain
the absence for such a long time. Do I go
down in a plane like Tom Hanks did? Or do
I get there by a leisurely cruise boat that
safely and securely deposits me and my
stuff ashore??? Transportation IS sort of
important... I mean, I don't think I would
want to go through the trauma that poor
Tom Hanks did. Imagine - it drove him
right into talking to a soccer ball. But, as I
think about it..... a soccer ball can't talk
back. HA!

Babs
I actually felt sorry for that poor soccer ball, LOL!

I´d take my mallet,my widest half gouge and a large saw.
I´m hoping this desert island has lots of trees other than palm.

First off there would be my ol' dog, Freddie. Sheeze, you gotta have someone to talk to, who'll sit, listen and won't give you any grief and heartache in return.

Secondly, there's the Duchess. She'd get the dead 'ump if I left her behind. And a human voice would be nice from time to time. Wouldn't it my dear? Yes John.

Third, my CD collection that would be heavily expanded for the occasion. Silence is never golden.

o&k - errrrrrrrr, how are ya gonna listen to dem CDs?

Bill, I'm gonna get braile ones. CDs for the blind.
That's what they call initiative in the french foriegn legion.

Okay, now I'm with you - yeap!

Re: Castaway. I cried when Wilson was lost at sea. Can you believe that the guy who played Wilson wasn't even nominated for an oscar?

I want a bolt of fabric - about 6,000 yards of the stuff, a knife (or preferably a selection of knives in various strengths and sizes), and a good pair of long-lasting sneakers.

I would use one of the knives to rip at the fabric and cut up strips for tying together branches to make a shelter. I would use the fabric to dress myself by tying pieces together. I would use it to bandage injuries, wipe my arse (here's your washable toilet roll!), tie my hair back and so on and so on. The sneakers are very important because there is nothing worse than your feet hurting. I am a wimp and cannot even walk on a beach with stones and seashells without whimpering so I need my cushiony sneakers to get me about on the island. They gotta be good quality so they don't wear down too quickly but feel as soft as fluffy slipper encasing my tootsies in cotton balls!

Wilson is the movie's most compelling character.

First time posting.....here goes,hhmmmm, all the food and drink, hmmmmm, how about a man who will continue to love me,(can I take my LapTop(of course hooked up to the Internet w dsl, and will it work, I don't know, but that's choice# 2 and I'm too embarrased to tell the other.......so there.

Welcome aboard Selkie and have fun on A2K - and don't be embarassed - it's your fantasy!
