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!]]><![CDATA[tdiggity @ 5/15/2008 9:28:30 PM]]>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/f/4209/1/rss0_91.rss#q36

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.

Toothbrush. A must have.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.]]><![CDATA[sykeo56 @ 5/15/2008 4:25:28 PM]]>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/f/4209/1/rss0_91.rss#q32

I read books like most people munch crackers; when we go shopping Claire will buy a magazine and I will buy a book. I will usually finish it before Claire finishes hers.

The 1 album thing would also drive me mad. I once went to Greece for 2 weeks with a Sony discman and forgot to take any cds so got stuck with the one disc that was in it. Dead Kennedys - Bedtime for Democracy. I binned it after I got home.

The one item I would take would be a mirror.

Ray Mears said that a mirror can be seen shining up to 20 miles away on a clear day. In fact they could spot the light from the mirror without even spotting the island.]]><![CDATA[lynxears @ 5/15/2008 12:40:53 PM]]>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/f/4209/1/rss0_91.rss#q12« icepigs : I'd rather take Suvivorman, Les Stroud.

You're shipwrecked on a deserted island.

You may be there a day or 20 years...you just don't know.

You get 1 book, 1 (solar powered) MP3 player with a single album of your choice (no anthologies or greatest hits allowed), and 1 additional item. The additional item cannot be used to get you off the island, so "a boat" or "a cell phone" cannot be used.


So...

What book to you bring? What CD is ripped to that MP3 player? What's your additional item?



Me -

The book would probably be The Sword of Shannara (as much as I love Enders Game, it would be too short and I would probably grow tired of it).

The CD would be Rage for Order (although The Real Thing would be a close 2nd)

My one additional item would probably be a fishing pole.. After reading other's responses, I have to go with Maven and take the SOG PowerLock.]]>
