    Album/CD: Some crap I would burn

    Book: Me? Read? Who reads? Maybe some sports related book by Bob Costas. I think he only has one book. I can only read about baseball so many times. I don't even like baseball that much.

    Famous woman/man/other to partner up with: I don't know if you guys know my obsession/fixation/passion/infatuation with Anna Kournikova. That would be easy for me to say. I don't know how we would match up. Maybe... Yeah, I'll stick with Kourni.

    Movie/DVD: Hmm, tough choice. I don't know. Something from back to the future. I don't know which one. When ever I see BTTF on TNT, or TBS or USA network, I stop flipping channels and end up watching it.

    Video/Computer Game: Don't care, just give it to me, and I'll play. It's only fun if I have a partner to play with or against.

    Food of Choice: Hmm, I don't know. I like all kinds of food.


    Ya know, I am a buddhist? It's true. Oh, it's true. Even though I don't do **** with it.

    Album/CD: Madonna - The Immaculate Collection

    Book: it's apparently not bad enough that i have to be stranded on a deserted island, but now i have to read? geez. my first thought was the Bible b/c it's long, i'm sure we haven't gone over near all of it in church and it could be very interesting. but i'll go with A Brief History of Time by my boy Stephen Hawking. only got about 30 pages in the first time (did i mention i don't like to read?) but now i'd have all the time in the world.

    Famous man/woman/other to partner up with: Britney Spears. so damn hot.

    Movie/DVD: wanted to say Jurassic Park, my favorite ever. then thought of sentimental/childhood favorite The Great Outdoors. and then thought of Matrix: Reloaded for the highway chase scene. but i'm gonna go with Ferris Bueller's Day Off for the Mia Sara as Slone Peterson factor (plus the fact i love the movie). true, i'm on an island with Britney Spears, but we may get older and the sun may mess up her skin. Slone will always look so damn hot.

    Video/Computer Game: Tecmo Super Bowl for NES. gta3/gta: vc may be awesome but i could never ditch tecmo super bowl. so badass.

    Food of Choice: a hickory burger from The Mason Jar cooked between medium well and well. oh man.

    What movies would you chose?

    Some other I considered:

    Jaws
    The Natural
    Fawlty Towers (Not a movie of course, but I still laugh out loud at episodes I have seen many times)
    Do The Right Thing (May be a bit racy if kids from other islands drop by)
    LOTR (Both)
    The Shawshank Redemption (coulda been # 1 actually)
