« doggylives : Book: DeadKidSongs - Toby Litt

Cd: Seriously can't choose just one right now, I'll update after some thought, I'm kinda leaning towards Little Feat - Little Feat album, but my love of metal is pulling me towards something different, you're right Dav, this is hard.

One Item: Machete. All the survival guys reckon it's a must have for making shelters ect
I would borrow your book for a bit. I think I may have read it is that the one were they were part of Gang? not a gang but just Gang? and one of them had meningitis and the dinosaurs?

If it's the wrong book Imma gonna looking heap big silly now.

What?! I have no idea what you're talking about!

Seriously, yeh that's the one. I read it first on honeymoon (that's not all I did) and it brings back great memories as well as being one of the best books I've read.

Okay, I did this without looking at any other responses so that I wouldn't be influenced otherwise.

What book to you bring? The Beach by Alex Garland. Best book ever. I've read it three times now, and I'm not the type who re-reads books.
What CD is ripped to that MP3 player? 40oz to Freedom by Sublime.
What's your additional item?
An Acoustic Guitar. Maybe one that converts into a fishing pole?

« sykeo56:Book: What To Do if Shipwrecked on Desert Island

CD: Legend - Bob Marley and the Wailers. Seriously, find better beach music anywhere. And don't even say Jimmy Buffet. Unless maybe your additional item is a margarita mixing set, but probably not even then.

Item: Can I say a luxury yacht?
Uh... Legend is best of... Sorry sykeo.

« madhatteraggie : My book- The Simirilion(it would take me forever to read it all the way through)

My CD- Across the Universe soundtrack

My Additional item- either a tobacco plant, so that i can grow mo tobacco from it to smoke or a marijuanna plant, same reasons......i think i'll go with mary-jane
MaryJane will probably be on the island already. It's one of the most common plants in the world.

« sykeo56 : I'm not gonna lie to you, man. It seems a bit repetetive, and like a waste of the only item you get, when you can just fashion numerous devices to catch unlimited quantities of seafood. After all, you're on a freakin' desert island.

It would make more sense to have that magical ice chest produce unlimited quantities of steak. I promise, after a few weeks on a desert island, you'll be pretty tired of seafood, and desperately wanting real meat.
Except then I'd have to catch it. Have I mentioned that I'm lazy. I'm not Robinson Caruso, my shelter would be a lean-to and a hammock...

Survivalist handbook. I have one already.

CD- I love pink floyd, my favorite song is wish you were here, but that would be depressing. I don't actually listen to music, so just the sounds of the ocean would be enough.

Toothbrush. A must have.

« TraumaMamma :

You could chew on the end of a small twig and fashion your own toothbrush... can you imagine using the SAME toothbrush for 20 years? ew.

For my book I'd bring a survivalist handbook

I wouldn't really care what music I brought... my mp3 player picks up radio stations too, so hopefully I'd be close enough to civilization to pick up some kind of new music occasionally. I'd make up my own songs during times when I felt like it. If I'm on the island long enough I'm sure I'll figure out how to make some kinds of instruments.

For my extra item, I'd bring a machete, like someone mentioned before. A really shiny machete, so I can use it like a mirror.

Book - a survival guide or an encyclopedia

CD - I have this MP3 CD that has some Boards of Canada on it and I'd probably take that

Additional item - Our dog McGruff. He could hunt, he could help plow. He's all muscle; he's like a machine. He was bred to be "the poor man's horse" and he's amazing. He could keep me warm on cool nights and of course he'd keep me company. He has a pulling harness and he's remarkably strong.

Edit:

« donteatpoop : Okay, I did this without looking at any other responses so that I wouldn't be influenced otherwise.
Me too :)

Book - The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but not the one by Douglas Adams, the REAL one, since it could probably get me off the island or at least entertain me.

CD - any Elliott Smith album

Additional item - Kate from Lost (in which case forget the part about needing that book for entertainment...) ;)

Book: I'll be honest. I don't read. It isn't that I can't read, I just get no pleasure oot of reading a book. So... I guess a survival guide would be my choice.

Album: Since you have ruled oot all compilation and best of albums... this will require a lot of thought. Probably one of the Zeppelin albums.

Additional Item: A Sony Style Store*... duh!

*the Sony Store will be restocked monthly with the latest gear, but no contact with people. it will run on solar power. it will also have NO sales staff... HOORAY!

Book Some sort of guide to herbs and plants. Which ones can be used, and how. Something as simple as an abscessed tooth could kill you with the infection.

Music Kind of Blue- Miles Davis.

I'd also take a multi-tool. Leatherman or the like.
