Here's a suggested question from Frances (thanks Frances)

If you were trapped on an island what most prized possession would you want and who would you choose to be trapped with?</font>

Ok I will go first, everyone seems scared of this question. lol.





The most prized possesion that I would want is my photo album with pics from my wedding and pics of my kids. I would def would want my dh and kids to be on the island with me as well. Thats all I need and food lol.

After watching the TV show "Lost" I can't say what I would need the most. I suppose I would like a Bible with a picture of my family in it. I would rather they (my family) not be stranded with me so they can continue their lives (why should all of us be at a standstill?).


I figure I will need a higher"infinite intelligence" then I have to help me get out of the predicament.

LOL thats def one way to think of it. I love LOST by the way, its awesome.


I guess I would rather be with them and atleast see them grow up, my kids that is, than not know anything about them.

H-m-m-m. This is a tough one, if it's forever. I'd like my family and the Bible as well, I think. I think it would be wonderful to just spend time with my family and read the Bible without all the distractions of every-day life. Imagine it, ladies! No to-do list, no phone calls, no BILLS TO PAY - just playing outside on the beach all day. Sigh.

smileys/smiley36.gif I know what ever would any of us do with out our handy dandy cell phonesor computers????????

You guys are so deep.

Okay ... so let's say you're single and don't have a family yet, and you're only going to be there for ... how about six months?

Now, what's one thing you'd take and who would you be with?

smileys/smiley36.gifLOL Gotta mix up it up a bit?? smileys/smiley2.gif


Ok 6 months you could trap me with.....hmmm......Matthew McConhaghe (sp) I can dream can't I??


The one thing I would just have to have..well if I am with him toothbrush and toothpaste!!!!! smileys/smiley36.gifsmileys/smiley36.gifsmileys/smiley36.gif

Ok let's see............six months? I would definately have to have my Bible, no ifs ands or buts about it! As for who I would like with me that is hard because all the people I want (like my best friend, my son, my mom) I wouldn't want to take them away from their lives for that long...lol. I would definately have to be selfish and take my best friend with me:)


Tishia,
http://www.tishiasavestime.com

OMG that's too funny, I was thinking Matthew McConaughey (sp?) as I was reading Cheryl's new question!smileys/smiley36.gif


Toothbrush is a good idea!!smileys/smiley17.gif

My cell phone, and Colin Farrell. We'll see which battery runs out first! smileys/smiley36.gif

LOLsmileys/smiley36.gif



Okay I would need my Qu'ran, no queston.

Alone on a island I would be smileys/smiley29.gif in a week, I would deffinatly need some MAJOR spirtual help to get through that (Or get off the island smileys/smiley15.gif he he he)

I would want my sunglasses, toothpaste, toothbrush,sunscreen,deodreant and a good thick book like war and peace and beef jerky.Edited by: mamo

I would definitely want my bible with me and my dh.

DW and DD, for sure.



Oh, and I'd definitely want a boat...smileys/smiley17.gif



No?



I can't have a boat?



smileys/smiley7.gif

Ok ladies,this is too weird. How many of us are obsessed with Matthew Mcconaughey? He was my first thought before I even read down the post!


Second I guess I'd need something to crack open the coconuts like on that one Tom Hanks flick(?).

Matthew Mc???? said on Oprah the other day that he doesn't

use deoderant, preferring that natural smell instead.



So, if I were trapped on an island with HIM, I think I would need

something to freshen the air! smileys/smiley36.gif

I must be old-I don't even know this Matthew dude?? LOL


Anyway-if it was for only 6 months, I would want to be stuck there with...hmm...the idea of being stuck with one person without any distractions is scary to me!!smileys/smiley36.gifI would prefer to have a dog with me!!


The one thing I would want? An overnight bag filled with goodies...edible stuff, a book, sunglasses, a blanket, lip gloss, bar of soap, as much stuff as I could cram in one bag!! (is that cheating?) Ok-I just had visions of me sitting on the sand with a Palm pilot in my hand, surfing the web and of course visiting here several times a day!! Hahahahaha!!!!

Hi! First time posting...I'd like to be hanging at the island with my sisters and lots of good food. Like Christmas time...hehe

I would have to say my cell phone and Tim McGraw! smileys/smiley2.gif

This is a tough one, but I would have to say that I would want to be there with my husband (even if I were single, I'd choose him, again) and knowing what I know now, I would have to take my Bible, too.I could survive off the land for food and shelter.
smileys/smiley17.gif

Ya know how matthew M is lol He was in sweet home alabama! Hes a cutie :)

OK, if were permanently stranded, assuming no electricity of course, I'd take a box of 10 packages of paper and LOTS of pencils! And be stranded with my husband... he always carries his Victorinox, so that's how I'd sharpen the pencils. And he'd probably bring something else practical... like a shovel, or maybe his fishing rod case (4 rods)and tackle box. He's a minister, so we'd rely on his brain when we needed anything Biblical LOL.


If it were for 6 months, Val Kilmer. Didn't even have to think about that one. He's so well educated and off the wall we'd never run out of things to talk about.He's a flake, and so am I, so I think we'd get alongreally well.With so little to eat for that amount of time, he'd slim down fast and be super hot again! LOL And if there with him, forget the paper and pencils - I'd take my makeup/toiletries bag, definitely! ROFL!!

Okay 6 mos...lets see ...paint, canvas (so i can paint the scenery), paper, pen,(to write about the scenery, my thoughts, etc.)photography equipment (to take pictures of the scenery-my painting is not so good), wine (to put me in the mood to paint the scenery), lots of gourmet food (gotta eat), tent (gotta sleep), plenty of lounge wear, a few good books (romance, drama, intrigue), some music (smooth jazz-Boney James, etc.)


I wouldn't bring anyone, They would start talking and it would kill the mood. You can have sex right before you get stranded and it would probably hold you over for the six months anyway. smileys/smiley2.gif

If I were trapped on an island, I would want a boat, and someone who could get me off the island!!

DH and Bible

This topic should be called trapped on an island with Matthew McConaughey. smileys/smiley36.gifStand in line ladies I'm first. LOL! smileys/smiley17.gif


Trese how can you not know who Matthew is..shame shame on you. lol ..Here is a pic:


http://rds.yahoo.com/S=96062883/K=Matthew+McConaughey/v=2/SID=e/l=IVI/SIG=11sqnfkaa/EXP=1140303521/*-http%3A//www.amethystrose.com/Matthew1.gif


I'm looking forward to his new movie with Sarah Jessica Parker..


Ok back to the subject..I'd want all my friends and family on the island for one long big party with no responsibilities for 6 months. Woo Hoo!

oh him!! OK--yeah-he is a hottie.smileys/smiley27.gifI suck at remembering names or faces with names...whatever. I would still prefer a dog to a man though. I woul dprobalby start arguing with a man after a few days!! LOL

smileys/smiley17.gifHello to All,


In answer to the ? if I were trapped on an island.I would takethe holy bible, a variety of music CDs(for every mood), water and fruits, and myfour little blessings. smileys/smiley2.gif





Give Love+Smiles+Music


Ms. Edmund


________________

All I would need is some sunblock and Josh Lucas to rub it on! lol

My first choice would be Hubby and my Kids....but if I was dreaming...


A young Patrick Swazey or Brad without Angelinasmileys/smiley4.gif

(Before DD) The one thing I would have with me is chocolate and the one person would be my DH playing the role of handsome native there to teach methe ins and outs of the island http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif.

Rob Thomas for sure and a whole bunch of coffee


would a laptop be allowed? hehe!

if it was forever i would want the huz and baby and my pillow....if for 6 months i would want my dad and a bible, that way by the time i got back i would know it front to back and everything in between......then again, if i were stuck on a island for a long time i might want macguyver, that man could make us a sailboat using a pocketknife...lolsmileys/smiley36.gif

Trapped for 6 month on an Island, I will most definitely want to have my Aladdin's Lamp with mesmileys/smiley2.gif...!


Other than that - my husband, my son and my blinders...


To Magical Life!


Ayelet

A survival knife.

I have to agree with Trese. I would rather be stranded with my dogs than with a person. Although, six month with Antonio Banderasdoessound... um... interesting.


As for one item - an unlimited supply of duct tape - you can do anything with it. smileys/smiley1.gif And yes, I am female. I've just been trained well by the men in my life. smileys/smiley36.gif

I would want a Pen and Paper to write with....because I will always have Memories of my Family....and I spend alot of time Thinking anyway...so a Pen and Paper...

Okay first..


I am marriedsoof course I would want my Hubby, Kiddies &amp; we can't leave out my Damion(my doggie).


But now we are stranded 6 months &amp; single so lets dream a little....


I would want a real goodlookin guy with a wash board stomach! Now ladies...not a pretty boy. A tall dark &amp; rugged man.Like Vin Diesel...Deep voice..etc...Or L.L. hes got some abs on him. Oh girls Im sorry Ican't share anymore with you....smileys/smiley36.gif


I would also need my laptop....so I canjump onto this postingand tell youALL about it!smileys/smiley2.gif

haha...i want family...cos i'm sure survival can b guaranteed as a team...i'm most afraid of loneliness...esp that type when people are swarming ard u...and yet you feel empty and purposeless...or mayb i want to bring something tt can inspire purpose in my life...

oh this ones easy, i dream about this one. for six months or forever


hubby and a hammock for two, everything else we can figure out as we go along smileys/smiley2.gif


i might miss the kids at some point lol


kate

I want my computer with me. Its my family :D

ok...sunblock, sunglasses, lots of food, and my Man. 6 months...it would be heaven!!!

Josh Lucas for sure (I thought Brad Pitt...nothing sexier than him naked in Troy but the whole Angelina thing makes me sick) he's gorgeous - I'm partial to Matthew as well and who was that guy in Black Hawk down (you know the SEAL) and what about Owen Wilson, he was awesome in Behind Enemy Lines (you can tell that we only go to my husband's flicks- which is not often). And if I have all of them around I really won't need anything except food...and a couple of good romance novels...

how come a supposed disaster became such an enjoyable holiday?? haha...you guys are in gd humour eh?

Did someone say something about a disaster? And I thought we couldn't be married or have kids, if we do then I'll take the hubby over those guys any day :)

The question said "most prized possession", so I'm assuming it can only be one and for me that would be my Bible!

haha...i must be overly negative then...cos i interpreted "trapped" on an island as quite a disaster...at least a personal one...

Oh, yum, Matthew McConaughey! I love it that you added that we should also imagine we're single, Cheryl, so that I didn't feel like I should put my DH on there. smileys/smiley36.gif


You guys are making me feel terrible. I didn't even finish reading the question all the way and I got past the "what's the one thing" part, and I thought, my laptop. Then I realized that there's no power and probably no Wi-Fi on the island, so I guess I'd have to say a nice, big stack of books and a hammock, to keep me busy while Matthew McConaughey's out trying to catch our dinner. Oh, and I would definitely have to have something to write in. Free time, and no work? I have lots and lots of writing to catch up on. I can't imagine anything more blissful.


Mary

Hi my first post so here we go..


I'd take my hubby for sure, he makes me giggle. Other than that I'd take a lighter, a knife and six months supply of water. I guess we'd live on fish for 6 months lol

Okay who has my island???!!!!


My roomie's and my favorite dream is we'll win the lotto and buy an island. Airdrops monthly for food. Of course, we'd have our books, our computers and our dogs. And ............... 6 months isn't nearly long enough!!!!!!

a map with a boat full of gas so i can escape the island and go home.

Not married and no kids right? In that case, I would have to say my laptop, cell phone, my Ipod andStarbucks Mint Mocha Chip Frappucino!smileys/smiley4.gif

Okay, I'm going straight "pretend I'm single" fantasy on this one:


I need a laptop...*stands up and places hands behind back* "Hello, I'm Annie...and I'm an Internet addict"......


Who with? SEAN BIGGERSTAFF And if any of you don't know who he is, you're not fit to read this post! (j/k! He's a Scottish actor...I'm cradle robbing a little on that one but hey, it's my fantasy!)Edited by: Anne-Girl

What do you all, ladies, (forgive my male presence here) think of Pierce Brosnan? Whould he be a desired person to get stuck with on an island somehere?

Not for me, no...he'd be too busy congratulating himself on being Master of Everything to be a suitable companion, LOL!

If we can't take DH and the kids.......that's easy...


Birth Control and Matthew McConaughey.....smileys/smiley36.gif

Shame on you if you are thinking what I am thinking!


smileys/smiley9.gif

Ummm....my first thought was an airplane so I could go home..lol but if I have to be stuck on an Island I am thinking who better than Captain Jack sparrow?!?!?!? And perhaps a little rum? "Where has all the rum gone?"


p.s. I don't really like rum:)

My most prized possession is my mind in tact. Then God is the companion I
would choose.

I would not want my family to be denied their own lives, I would want them
to go on and live. Thus the only solution is a sound mind and my God.

To all your success,

Kim

If we are dreaming here, and if I were single.....smileys/smiley2.gifThe one thing I would take is a Yacht, it would be anchored in the lagoon. The person I would love to take with me....ummmm....."Steven Sagal!"smileys/smiley35.gif

Can I dream.....Mathew is not bad but I prefer Orlando Bloom.http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif


And I would take a suitcase full of woman's stuff and a radio....


and some do-it-yourself books

I would choose to be trapped with my hubby so I won't have to miss him so much! I'm not sure what item I would take, but I would want it to be something that would be the most useful in helping me to survive on the island!

If I were trapped for ever I would want my most priced possesions to be a picture of my wife and daughter, as I would not want them to be there and suffer.


And I would want to be trapped with my dog...go figure!smileys/smiley11.gif

Robinson crusoe would be a good bet! smileys/smiley36.gif

suntan lotion and angelina jolie yummy.

lol Captain Jack Sparrow!


My favorite movie is Swiss Family Robinson- If I could have a way to rebuild that with my family and my dogs then I would say that.


Six months and single? Hmmm a leatherman and Gerard Butler. Yummy! Tall dark and handsome, great body, accent, he can sing(we could act out scenes from Phantom of the Opera). I've done survival training so I can live off the land and Gerard.

Great film swiss family robinson. could watch it over and over again

Well, hubby would be my first choice. Besides, he really is MacGyver like so that would be good. If I weren't being so "Deep" I'd have to go with Tom Hanks. He's already been trapped on an island so he probably knows what it's like, right? Oh, that was just a movie? And I thought it was real!!!smileys/smiley9.gif


What I would want would be a knife. Seems you could do a lot with a knife but if we are talking luxury items it would have to be a really long book (and hopefully a good one).


Nicole

My daughter asks me this question couple of weeks ago. I told her I would want my comb, deodorant and lotion.She asked about food and I saidfood and water is already on the island. You can easily makefire (Tom Hanks in Castaway) and make a knife out of wood. What else do you need to survive...

Fresh water and Harrison Ford, and if he's not available I will settle for my hubby!smileys/smiley2.gif

I will definitely take the man of my life with me.<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />


I would need an album of my family and friends in able to survive.

Hmmmm, if I were trapped on an island, what would I have and who would I want to be with me? Well, would take my Bible and a best friend. I also would want some hygiene supplies!

Rope to help build a home, catch food, etc and Sean Bean!smileys/smiley36.gif

Good heavens, I wouldn't want anyone with me....but I would want my laptop with internet connection of course!!!

Sounds like the PERFECT vacation! smileys/smiley4.gif


Lori

Well, of course I'd want my dh and dd, but......


In my fantasy.....A cooler full of bottled water and Viggo Mortenson straight out of Lord of the Rings.

Wow, alot of votes for Matthew McConaghey (did I spell that right?) He's cute enough, I reckon.

I would have to take my husband and my dog, Sadie. I can't do without either one for very long. smileys/smiley19.gif

Leigh
</span>

http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gifMy wife and sunblock. It'd have to be my wife because she'd kill me otherwise...

Orlando Bloom - YUM! smileys/smiley27.gif

If it is for six months:


I would like to have cocktails and my significant other with me!


That would be the best vacation ever!!!smileys/smiley32.gif

I'd have an unlimited supply of food &amp; water and be trapped with Josh Holloway from Lost for a good few monthssmileys/smiley2.gif

Kenny Chesney When the Sun Goes Down. Do I need to say more.

I would want my computer with me. I would love to be stranded with Loretta Milligan

I must be deprived more than all you guys. I would want to have a Hammock and Mel Gibson. He would not be able to get any alcohol on the island anyway. smileys/smiley36.gif

If I was stranded on island my most prized possession would be faith that I will get off the island. I would want someone I could laugh with a lot so maybe Gilbert Godfrey.

I would love to have my Bible in that Island, a portable Ham Radio with a dipole antena (communication is #1 in those situations), and a solar powerflash light. If I discovered that getting out of there would almost if not impossible, then I would slowly built a little town just for me... ha ha ha.


Arnold

OMG~ HAS TO BE with KEANU REEVES AND MY COLLECTION OF VC ANDREWS BOOKS.


(i don't ask for much)


Jo Ann~*~

my wife ofcourse...and my guitar!!!


although she would probally break by the end of the first day because if we were stranded on an island it would be my fault and shed be pissed at mesmileys/smiley5.gif

6 months and single and one thing and who?

Considering that I have never married nor even lived
with a woman (no, I am not a homosexual and while I
don't hate them, I abhor what they do) and that I am
less than 6 months away from my 65th birthday, my
answer has to be: my Rosary and someone, whether male
or female, young or old-no matter-who knows how to
forage for food and also how to cook it. It would also
be advantageous if the person could speak or be able to
learn English or French or maybe Spanish.

I guess it would have to be my girlfriend and food


asI could not live without either of them!

I would take Omar Epps from House and the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.smileys/smiley9.gif

Well, Let me chime in with a guy's reply to this one of a kind question.


If I was not married, I would be there with Sandra Bullock, feeding each other, and figuring out unique ways to work off all those calories!!http://www.wahm.com/Forum/smileys/smiley1.gif


Mike

Civilization and Law. The rest will come later.smileys/smiley12.gif

On an island for six weeks, the bible, my cd player with my spiritual tapes and something to eat. I don't necessarily want some one with me; but if I must, my darling husband who would love the rest by havng very little to do.

That's an easy one! A Giant - deli case size - of Sharp Provolone cheese, An equal portion of Italian Sopressato, a Giant Loaf of Fresh Italian bread and a Caraft of Sweet Red Wine! I could Eat Drink and be very merry with those!!


Of course I would take my girlfriend with me..So Much for our Nutrisystem Diet!


smileys/smiley2.gif

Ok...lol...hate to be a spoiler but...the original question was:

If you were trapped on an island what most prized possession would you want and who would you choose to be trapped with?

I don't have a prized possession so I'll think on that and attack the "who" first.

I really wouldn't like the idea of being trapped on an island...so I'd pick Bill Gates to be trapped with. Melinda would reel him back in pretty darn quick, no expense spared, so I'd stick with Bill.

What possession would I want. Give me a pen and notebook, I could entertain myself til rescued.</span> And I could take notes on my discussions with Bill.

Oh How little doth ye knowhow much I prize my processed meats and cheeses!


But in the spirit of the original question:


I would take my sketchbook and soft lead pencil set, and my girlfriend...I would draw her all day long!


http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley11.gif And thiswould be the face she would make if she knew I said that!


-Penz

If I was not married, it would have to be Tim McGraw. (I just love him!) I would definitely have to have my daughter with me so I could watch her grow up. I'd have to have a toothbrush also.

Well, I'd have to say Keith Urban, if I could get Nicole out of the way, of course, but if not, well, Kenny Chesney would do! smileys/smiley2.gif


Other than that, I'd have to have my computer. I'd spend six months building my business online and having a blast. It would keep me connected to the outside world. I'm not much of a loner and would definitely want to be connected.

smileys/smiley36.gifThis topic is fun. I've stayed away from the question of the week forum until today..and I am having a blast.


So let's see....


For the original question: My mother and a stack of great books and pen &amp; paper. I wouldn't want to rob my children of their life but I would love to get my mother out of her rotten one.





For the six months &amp; single?


Brad Pitt &amp; Angelina Jolie or Tim McGraw &amp; Faith Hill....yes both of them, hey a girl can dream right but we'd all need our own toothbrushes and a Leatherman tool.


And jus so you all know, this would be my husbands fantasy as wellsmileys/smiley9.gif

TRAPPED ON AN ISLAND?


IT WOULD DEPEND ON THE TYPE OF ISLAND (PHYSIC).JUST KIDDIN A LI'L BIT.DEFINITELY,LIKE TO BE TRAPPED WITH SOME QUALIFIED SOUL MATE...HUMM...

My hubby, my kids and I were born and raised on an island.
I will guess the island of this question has wild animals and native fruits
and veggies. That said - I only need my man, our kids and our 2 canine
companions. We know how to fish (and certain fish taste better raw than
cooked, trust me on this one, lol), we've gone hunting before, and we
know how to make an inground oven and cook a pig in it. (not sure I can
make a fire by rubbing two sticks together, so having a flint rock would
be helpful)
ONE necessity - well, you can make shelter, and "beds" and "blankets",
you can make plates and cups, but I have never made a pot before. So I
think I would like to take a big cast iron pot so I can cook things over a
fire. You need to boil salt water to make it drinkable, so I'll need the pot
for that as well.
Seriously - shelter, food and minimal clothing to protect you from the
"elements" is all you need on an island. There are ways to use what's on
the island to make anything else you need - like a spear for fishing and
hunting. Coconut shells make great bowls or cups. The fibers from the
outer coconut husk are great for making fires. The "leaves" of the
Coconut or Palm trees can be woven into mats as beds and possibly
blankets. If there are wild pigs on the island, you have food, and you can
turn their hide into a form of clothing. Use the tusks to help remove
meat from a crab - or even to help scale a fish.
Am I being too logical???LMAO
OK - So I want my dh, our kids and 2 canines, AND a big cast iron pot.
</font></font>

If I were trapped on an Island, I would take my bible and remind God of His promises of deliverance everyday. I know thatGod created the world and its inhabitants in 7 days and certainlyHe will provide for me on an island by creating a toilet and shelter.


I'd also take my husband (ifI've gotta be there-You've gotta be thereBuddy!)LOL

I would need a ladder and ammo!! Gotta eat! And definitely Selma Hayek!

Trapped on an island for 6 months??? Can't imagine ever tiring of Richard Gere, so I'd take him. Or else maybe Luca from the ER show on TV.
A prized possession? only ONE??? Geez, definitely NOT a cell phone or computer, on a deserted island? Maybe my dog in case the man becomes a pain as men often do. She'll keep him in line, be my best friend, and keep me company.Edited by: CarolRoss

Trapped on an island...hmmm...rabbit trap or bear trap?
Atoll in the Pacific or ice floe? Please provide more
information.

I would want to be by myself.....so I guess I could take Malik Yoba. Also, I would like to have enough doritos to last me until help arrives. If I have to go a least I will go happysmileys/smiley2.gif

An astrolabe and someone to hoist the sail. Since each
of us can bring one thing, I'd choose someone who owns
a sailboat. The astrolabe is a navigational
instrument,somewhat like a sextant.

If I were trapped on an Island, I would have to take my dog, Shadow, a Jack Russell Terrier - a well behaved one, I might add. I would also bring a few survival tools like an axe, hammer &amp; saw. A large cooking pot would be very helpful and maybe a tin cup. Rain gear might be very smart too to weather the storms. Maybe I could take my 10 year old Grandson if it was only for 6 months. It would be a great learning experience for him as I am sure that he would learn very good survival skills which he is going to need soon to get along in this cruel world we live in.


First post in here - what fun!!!

Almay Eye Makeup Remover Pads (non-oily) - - I'd go nowhere without them. Gotta stock up whenever CVS has a sale. Seriously.

Holy smokes! I'd have to be trapped with a 12-month's supply (just-in-case) of Diet Coke, Michelob Ultra's and Marlboro Lights 100's(box cartons, not soft-packs!).


Once these necessaries are in place, then and only then, can or will we talk about people! smileys/smiley36.gif

There's a new series of Robin Hood here in the UK, and I likeone of thebaddies, Guy of Gisbourne! Tall, dark and handsome....


He'd have to come with me -willing or not

If I were trapped on a desserted island I would bring my computer so that I could order anything I wanted/needed to survive. The first thing I would order to arrive would be my husband.

If I were stranded on an island, I would only be concerned about survival; therefore, I would want some kind of non-perishable food supply. I'm just practical like that. Also, I would want to have that guy off survivor man on tv, so he could help me get off the island as soon as possible.

If it were me trapped on an island, I would want tons of non-perishable food items. Also, I would want the man off of survivor man to be on the island with me, in order to help me with survivor techniques and to help me get off alive.

If I were trapped on an Island for six months I would want my Hubby (who is also my best friend) with me. We are a good team and together we can survive anything life throws at us.


If my house were on fire...what one thing would I grab? I guess it would be my dog. So that must make her my prized possession.


smileys/smiley1.gifsmileys/smiley2.gif

If I were trapped on an island I would certainly want my husband with me because he is the outdoors type and knows all about plants and shrubs, fish and other animals, hunting and cooking, so I do not think I would starve if he were with me. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

This is a ? I think about often (and wish for sometimes too). Stuck there as life is now: my DH, he knows how to do everything to survive (wants to go on survivor, but i won't let him, don't want him to be gone that long) and possession .... that's tough. Just about everything you need can be made on the island, so i guess i would take a knife. (Dh says knife and our dog.)

For six months and single: again my DH and a knife.

If I was stranded on an island I would want a smart dog with me like a lab or german shepherd, and my Bible! I wanted to include an ex boyfriend that I always remember fondly, and he's sooooo smart, but nah I don't think it would be a good idea after all! I just figure that two minds contribute more than one! lolsmileys/smiley2.gif

smileys/smiley2.gifI would take my portable dvd player and Dog the bounty hunter dvds and would want to be with my kids.

My valuable photographs of peopleI care about.


I would be gaga to be on an island with one speciffic lady who models on Deal Or No deal.She has curly/wavy brunette hair,blue eyes and is such a doll. smileys/smiley17.gifsmileys/smiley17.gifEdited by: wealth22

If I were trapped on an island for 6 months and had only one choice...I would choose a magic wand. Then I could have all I wanted when I needed it, then zap it when finished! smileys/smiley36.gif

Muttnik, your response regarding duct tape makes me wonder if you've been watching too much of the "Red Green Show", LOL!


I think I would opt for a plane and a licensed pilot. But of course, I'd spend a couple relaxing weeks soaking up the sun and getting to know this pilot dude first. smileys/smiley2.gif

beside food and drink ll I need in this island is a computer with the internet but than that means I wont be stranded for long.

All I would need is my ukulele and Rosie O'Donnell. Can you imagine that combo?

I would want my Bible and Kenneth Copeland with me. I wouldn't be stranded that long with that combo!!

If I was permanently stranded on an island, I'd like to say a boat, but that'd be cheating. I'd want some good music and pictures of my family. I'd probably need a large supply of tissues, too, because I'd be bawling knowing that I'm missing my babies growing up.


Matthew McC. is a cutie, but I saw him on one episode of Oprah and he seemed very full of himself.Took away the enjoyment for me because nothing's a bigger turnoff than a guy who thinks he's all that and we should be grateful for him. Blech!

I would have to have my
"You Can Heal Your Life" book
by Louise Hay and take my
son with me, can't do without him.

Can I bring my computer with internet
connection along, or is that cheating?

I would hopefully have a bottle,,a cork,,some note paper,,a pencil,,and last but not least all the Playboy issues with ANNA NICOLE SMITH!http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif

If I were on a deserted island, the only thing I would want is my man, chocolate chip cookies and diet coke, We've actually talked about this scenario before!!
Not too nutitious....but the endorphins and dopamine being produced from that happines of our love would keep us healthy.
Sounds far fetched enough and crazy enough that it might just work.
I'll take the yacht out in the ocean LOOKING at the island, with all the amenities, comforts and abundance that we've created together!!
That's sounds better!!

I guess i'd need a fully loaded MP3 player and paper and pens. Plus my cats as they'd be so unhappy without me and vice versa.

My cell phone so I could call to be rescued after about a week of R&amp;R with no responsibilities.

I'd want my bible and family. and a computer and cell phone and definately would want electricity.

This may seem silly, but my journal and my dog Maggie.http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif
Thanks for the asking.

Could I bring my dog? because technically she is a possession of mine

if dogs are allowed definetly my dog. But if dogs are not allowed I would bring my surfboard because what else is there to do on an island but surf

smileys/smiley32.gif

I would want my husband and kids with me and I would take my laptop...as long as I could have wifi http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif I figure with the net you can have access to virtually anything....pics, Bible...e-mail! But then I supposed you wouldn't really be trapped......so I'll just say I would like to HIDE on an island!

Lost on an Island. I would really like to have my husband with me, he's is such a treasure, I would like to have some really beautful grapes. Would it be at all possible to have my laptop then I could communicate until I ran out of battery!!

At first I thought it might be nice to just be alone with a good (very thick) book, then on contemplation it would have to be the kids. They are not always angels but who was when we were young?? They make our lives both interesting anc challenging. Aaaaaaaaaaah but to what end??</font></font></font>

For six months...sun screen and my wife. That would be awesome.

If I were trapped on an island, I hope to be rescued soon.

If i were trapped on an island for 6 months, i would need to have my son &amp; my man with me. 'Cause we'd be together, cell would be nice so we can be rescued.

Prized possession would be my Rosary.

Person not sure. If I was married it would be my wife.
I'm still looking, she is out there somewhere. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif


paul

.

I would have to say, a picture of my family and a multitool (leatherman or gerber). The pic of my family to give me something to live for, and the multitool for daily survival.

My hubby and whatever supplies he thought we'd need for the time that we're there -and sunblock. Hopefully the kids are safe with grandparents till we get home :)

I would have to say, my cell phone, toothpaste, toothbrush, my Diet Coke and JON BON JOVI!!! I would be ONE happy woman :)

http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gifALL WHAT DO I NEED IT"S MY HUSBUND, KIDS AND COMPUTER

I would choose to be stranded with a musical instrument I have never played. I would sure have plenty of time to figure it out!

http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley17.gifOW IT WILL BE GREAT TO BE AT ISLEND WITH MY KIDS AND MY HUSBAND!

If I were trapped on an island for 6 months and had only one choice...I would choose a magic wand. Then I could have all I wanted when I needed it, then zap it when finished! smileys/smiley36.gif

lol i second that !http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif

A rambo knife and my sweetie.

IT'S MUST BE A LOTS OFF GOOD FOOD, TOYS MY KIDS AND OFCORSE MY SWEET HUSBAND

OW YES AND OF COURSE IT MUST A BUTIFULE HOUSE ON THE ISLAND AND INSIDE EVRY ROOM MUST BE CONDITIONER

i would definitely have music and my wifehttp://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif

I would want to be trapped with my boyfriend (easy answer) and I would take my fridge (full of yummy food!!!!) http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif

I would want my Bible and since I have 6 grandkids and can only pick 1, I'd select my husband. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

Sher :)

That's a toughie. If I have to be stranded then I would choose to be with my husband and my son. I'd take the grandbaby, but she's in the "whining for no reason" stage right now (almost 2) and it's working grammy's nerves http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley29.gif.

LOL... for 6 months, I'd want a lighter and a 6 month supply of coffee! If I could take one person... it would have to be my wife, Kristen even though she would hate not having a shower or a hair dryer, but at least she would save money by not going tanning every week!

I would spoil her with fresh picked fruit from the island and mud massages everyday and we'd hang out, laughand chat by the fire and drink our coffee. We'd hold hands and walk down the beach and enjoy all the magnificent scenery. It would be the best 6 months ever! Well.. OK, I'd definatelymiss my kids, maybe we could sneak them in with us!

Someone wake me up!!! I'm wishing I was stranded for 6 months!

I would take:
my husband and hopefully he would catch some yummy seafood while I forage for roots and berries that I prepare in under 30 minutes and they taste Yummo! http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley17.gif

Since this is a fantasy, I'd like to have my laptop with an unlimited battery and wireless internet connection...

AND I'd like to have Tony Bourdain along with me - he's so sexy, and he loves the most exotic food, so we'd never go hungry, or be bored!smileys/smiley9.gif

Wow this is a tough one!!
I think I would want to trapped with the guy from Man Vs Wild. So I know I would survive.
The one thing I would want is a picture of me kids.

( Great Question)http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

If its for 6 months, my laptop (magically charged for the whole 6 months of course) and any of the following:

George Clooney
Hrithik Roshan
Hugh Jackman

Those are the only ones I can think of right now....oh, or Jen's new model boyfriend!

A real tough one.....that's really a nasty one....I would probably need my bible with lots of money so that I can bribe someone passing thru that island to get me out of that island....how does it sound???

My dh , he would hot on the beach, and of course my hot pink laptop

okay, you are going to think I am crazy, but I have already figured out if there is only one thing I can have with me and only one thing, I must take my blistex chapstick!!!!

If I get to take someone, I get I take my husband :) Maybe he gets to bring one thing too :)

If I was stranded on an Island I would want my husband and 2 boys with me. I would also like food of course, and pictures of all my family and friends. I also need my little dog to keep us busy on the island.

Hard Question thanks.

My SPiritual Guide Ananda Abinou, and a Sattelite phone.

My girlfriend Mary, and my laptop.http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif

Well, money will do me no good..so I believe that it would have to be a thousand writing tablets. I need to write no matter what. I would only want to be with one person..the love of my life. Imagine all the privacy we'll have?

Ok, had to think this thru again. My most prized possesion is God. I only need Him with me, being a part of me, guiding me. But also, for a companion, my Eve would have to be a girl I met in New York City back in 1981...beautiful Peruvian Girl named Gina.

Lol, I've come back to this one several times. Every time I get stuck in an endless mind loop and I can't answer it. I like some of the other's answers though.

*blush*

Newbie Shield

Hmmm. My first thought is GOD! Of course, he is ALWAYS with me cuz he is within me. So, that means I get to have one more thing with me. I have three children. I couldn't possibly choose ONE. So, I guess that would be a working cell phone...so I could communicate with my babies.

It depends if its an uninhabitable island then i will have a problem . What i would like to have with me is my bible and a knife , so i can defend my self from wild animals .i like to be amongst people i will become home sick .
the knife will help me to find food , to cut wood for a fire to signal any boat at sea or planes looking for you yes i think a knike and some matches is what i would like to have if i am trapped on an island

If I'm stranded on an island, I would want both of my kids to be with me, my significant other, my dog and cat, all of the pictures of our lives together. as for food, there would be fresh fruits and vegetables to pick and eat with no pesticides. We would relax, and do what we wanted whenever we wanted. Peace and quiet at last! Maybe my blood pressure would go down!

A helicopter with a large fuel tank.

Newbie Shield

I agree with the people who said they'd want a boat! Otherwise, my significant other and books :-)

I would want to take my hubby and of course my lap top!

Most prized possession .. my salvation





who with.. ..pretty obvious

What i wanted most if i was trapped on an island is
a knife , some matches to build a fire and a saucepan
so that i can cook some food.It all depends on how long i am going to be on the island
until another time

Jessica Alba,nothing else, thank you!


MMMMMMM!

I would like to have a mp4 player ,a laptop , a camera , a gun and Leonardo DiCaprio.

I would want my hubby and some way to run a pc lol

That's easy! I'd bring a Swiss army knife and MacGyver! "He can build anything!"

Eric smileys/smiley1.gif

Hello:

Great question!

Well, my choice of company would be my dear Spouse without whom my life would not be complete (you can tell her I said so - just so she knows hubby isn't insensitive ALL of the time!)

My most prized possesion to take along would be my notebook computer, equipped with a wireless Internet connection, of course, and a solar power generator.

The reason is, I love writing and I love Internet marketing, so I HAVE to take my computer!

I am in need of 10 different pokemon figures. I am missing Pupitar, Pineco, Snover, Azelf, Golem, Ralts, Claydol, Aron, Zapdos, and Budew. I was thinking about buying a collection from this LDU Company in China but I really don't need 288 pokemon figures, and that is the smallest collection that I see them listing on their website www.LDUcompany.com (http://www.LDUcompany.com)


I am trying to find a place to buy just the ten that I need. Has anyone ever bought pokemon characters from this LDU website? Oh yeah, here is a link to the page with all the pokemons http://www.liangdianup.com/pokemons_1.htm (http://www.liangdianup.com/pokemons_1.htm)


Any ideas please post and let me know :)

smileys/smiley36.gif I know what ever would any of us do with out our handy dandy cell phonesor computers????????

Good point! Is there wireless internet on this island??smileys/smiley4.gif

I have a blue suit case my father which has passed now. I have used it to carry all my pictures of my kids ect... . I would want that and my five year old son.

Well, my first thought was my mala (similar to a rosary) to chant on and my husband, but now I am considering a laptop! ROFLOL.Gotta read you know. http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

That's easy! I'd bring a Swiss army knife and MacGyver! "He can build anything!"

Eric smileys/smiley1.gif


LMBO!smileys/smiley36.gif

I would take reruns of CSI,and pray to my heavenly fatherthat I have learned my lesson and he did not need to go this far to get me to read my bible. So please take me back home. I love the beachbut this is a little much.

Ugghh.. a question like this boggles my mind ! I definately would want my photo albums. But I would want so many people to be trapped with me. My kids. My husband. My mom. I don't want to live without any of them !

A sexy companion, and a satellite phone just in case.

a guitar and martina mcbride

Ice cream and... the ice cream man?smileys/smiley36.gif

http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gifIf I was on a island...fresh water source hopefuly and fish to eat, I would need a knife, sunscreen, and my bible...I would want to be with my husband of 20 years.


Edited by: donnaj

Permanently, it has to be my daughter and a gadget that I can use.

For 6 months, I would want to be alone with a thousand of my favorite books and a fishing rod.

I would have to take the Internet and a computer to my island. :-) And of course, my family, but mostly the Internet. :-)

Chapstick!

Did you know there's a proper way to apply it!

11 strokes on the top lip and 11 on the bottom -

Then your good for a few hours.smileys/smiley2.gif

This is a great question.
their are several things that, I would like with me,
lots of good books.tooth brush and tooth paste as well as creams.
I think it would be alright, for a few days with out phones, internet etc. you would have to do some exploring
or you become lonely. Would be great, if your family was with you, you could sure spend some quality time to-gether.

Marie

If I were trapped for 6 months I would want my husband and dogs with me. What if Matthew M isn't at all like he is in the movies? Better to just be able to think and drool over him!

Be with my children and enjoy the new surroundings - free from the hassle of city life. Just like living in Sylt, coupled with health guru like Ernährung It's like living in a stress-free island.

To be sure, a wholesome island please....

Sylt (http://www.sas-sylt.de/index2.html)

I do a similar exercise in a journal writing class I teach.

I have the students choose 1 book, 1 person &amp; 3 items besides the book. That's it.

I picked the Bible for my book as it has more "stories" and topics for discussion- you would never be bored!

I picked my 17 yr. old son as my one personover my SO and 29 yr. old son. The SO would be bored with out TV and he's notmuch of a reader.I'm not sure he wouldget intoreading the bible cover to cover not to mention getting to know me likehe never would at home.

The 29 yr. old is too pessimistic and unlike me, hequits on himself quite easily.

The 17 yr. old has worked on a dairy farm off &amp; on for the last 3-4 yrs. He LOVES physical stuff, hard workand hecan carry a conversation. At his conference, his teachers just went on &amp; on about how he participates so much in class and is always talking about stuff he read in the paper. I'm like "My Kid?" But seriously,I think he would be the one I would get along with the best.

I did this with my Girl Scouts and several said they would bring their cell phones! Geez!

I have often thought of that questions in the last few years of my life!
It came down to what is the most important thing to you if life!
After much thought and reflection I have to say that if I had everything but did not have God, I would have nothing! Or I if I had nothing other than God I would have EVERYTHING!

So I choose God!

I would definitely want to have my guitar with me and of course I would love to have my entire family with me like Swiss Family Robinson, but if I had to narrow it down to just one person I would pick my little three year old sister
Sabrina because she loves to cuddle and I would need someone to take care of to feel happy.

I have often thought of this question! If I could have one person with me it would be my husband. However, if there was ONLY one thing or person and that included God as my choice, I would chose GOD. Because if I had anything or everythingI wanted but did not have God with me, I would have NOTHING!

If I will be trapped in an island i want to be with my husband and I would would want to have a laptop and internet (which is impossible in an island hehehe)

lroberts! I hear you! What would we do without a computer? It would be hard to live without our computer!

My bible and my husband.http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif Can't think of a better place to be stranded.... my username suggests how much I love the <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on">Caribbean</st1:place>. My husband truly is my best friend. I love my bible-- so those are my two. If I could choose 2 more, it would be my kids. My son and I have identical personalities which is a blessing AND a curse! We would certainly entertain one another if we were stranded! <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I would take the whole series of Twilight Books and since we are fantasying I'll take Edward Cullen to read them to me.smileys/smiley2.gif

as long as James is there - thats all that matters_popupControl();

My husband...boy would that be a dream come true!

Hmmm..... I would need toilet paper, toothpaste and a toothbrush.

If I had tochoose one person, Iwould choose to be trapped with my husband.

http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley18.gif

Prized possession would be my Bible and who would be my sister

You know, I can't make up my mind, my list is so long..........

I would like to have an axe (or at least a knife) and my partner.

Frances, had a good idea, I think. But in the reality of things, he probably wouldn't be very interested in me...I am way to old for him! Maybe McGyver...he was always resourceful!

I, too, would like my Bible with me (and it probably would be since I usually always have it with me) I enjoy that reading because everytime I learn something that I didn't catch all the other times I've read it!

Luckily for me, most of my pictures of my family and all the great memories we've shared are in my head; so I guess I'd like to take my mind if I can find it in time before I go...of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most sometimes! LOL

I would definitely take my laptop (is there internet?) and my 2 babies...i can't choose just one of them

My family and I just had this conversation at the dinner table a couple of nights ago! My husband and I both agreed that we would take satellite radio since it can work from anywhere. You'd need a solar powered radio though!

:)

Stranded on and island...oh my! I wouldn't take my family because I would want them on the search team to help find me ;)

A most prized possession that I would take is a family photo album to keep my spirits up. A survival tool that I would want is matches so that I could light a fire to be warm, boil water to kill any parasites in order to drink it, and to cook shrimp, crab, lobster, fish, etc.!!! Wow, sounds like I would eat better an the island that I do now...lol :o

Only because the last answer sticks in my head, I'd I have to say, give me a spoon. I'm thinking it would be a great tool and I could eat rock soup with it.
