Okay...the old desert island routine...Remember that this is a very convenient island, coming as it does with electricity, and all the needed equipment...but assuming it exists, and you were stranded on a desert island, what would be your choice for each of the following (ONLY 1 pick each, not for the Charlie Browns of the board...) Album/CD: Book: Famous woman/man/other to partner up with: Movie/DVD: Video/Computer Game: Food of Choice: I said famous person to avoid people feeling the need to say their significant other, plus most of us won't know what that means...
You should've titled it, "Looks Like I'm Stranded on a Desert Island". <B>Album/CD:</B> Live at Red Rocks-Dave Matthews Band <B>Book:</B> A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius-Dave Eggers <B>Famous woman/man/other to partner up with:</B> Kate Winslet <B>Movie/DVD:</B> High Fidelity <B>Video/Computer Game:</B> NCAA Football 2004 <B>Food of Choice:</B> Beer...I'll catch fish, dammit.
Album/CD: TOOL-Aenima Book: To Kill A Mockingbird Famous woman/man/other to partner up with: Daisey Fuentes Movie/DVD: Airplane! Video/Computer Game: Techmo Superbowl on SNES Food of Choice: Steak
Album: The Clash: London Calling Book: Chicot the Jester By Alexander Dumas Famous Woman: Either Jeneane Garafolo or maybe Kim Deal. I need more than just physical stimulation. Movie: Caddy Shack (My favorite is Spinal Tap but I know it so well that I can watch it in my imagination on that island all the time.) On another day I might say Lawrence of Arabia. It's good and is also long so it would occupy my time. It also might inspire me to stay alive. Computer game: Either Star Wars Galaxies or Everquest Food: Alaskan King Crab Legs.
Album/CD: On and On by Jack Johnson (i'm on a beach for crying out loud) Book: Karma Sutra (look below) Famous woman/man/other to partner up with: Elisha Cuthbert - hell f*ckin yeah!! Movie/DVD: Office Space Video/Computer Game: Tiger Woods Golf '03, be-yotch. Food of Choice: gotta agree w/ RM95 on this one - beer, preferably Moosehead.
Album/CD: Beethoven's Fifth Symphony Book: Leaves of Grass - Walt Whitman Famous woman/man/other to partner up with: Eckhart Tolle (He's a spiritual teacher. I figure if I'm going to be stuck on a desert island, I might as well become enlightened while I'm there). Movie/DVD: Hannah and Her Sisters Video/Computer Game: I don't play video games. Can I trade this for a deck of playing cards instead? Food of Choice: Pizza
You're back on my Christmas list... But I thought that surely Louis XIV would be your other of choice...
Album/CD: Something I mixed on my computer...I don't like only one band/singer enough to be stuck with them forever Book: The Sweet Potato Queen's Trilogy (Book of Love, God Save the Sweet Potato Queen's and Cookbook and Finincial Planner-what a great girls' book!) Other person: I would ideally pick a non-famous person (who should know who he is) but if I had to go famous, I'd pick Tom Hanks. He has a boyish charm as well as some depth. Movie: Legally Blonde...quite possible the best movie to support girls and their independence (a chick flick not just about the guy but more about finding herself)...next would be Office Space or Pretty Woman. But Cinderella would be temping too (I'm such a romantic girly girl!) Video/Computer game: Tough one since I don't play much...something silly like Sims or I'd get an extra movie or unlimited crossword puzzles Food: Anything Tex-Mex....or anything with cream cheese!
