| First Off, I Would Bring All Four Beatles As They Were In... | Sep 5th. at 4:19:41 pm EDT |

| Aelfen Pandora (Katie to the humans) (Chicago, Illinois US) | Age: 16 - Email |

first off, I would bring all four Beatles as they were in 1963 (but they would age like me and wouldn't have wives or girlfriends or kids or commitments to anyone but me). A neverending bag of condoms and birthcontrol-pills since they'd be there (teehee!). A really good computer with accessories (connections and electricity would be on the island). All my magickal supplies. All my art supplies. All my friends (including relatives). Last of all, all the cds in the world except for all pop music made later than 1995.
Am I materialistic or what?
PS> we'd never get off the island since it'd be heaven

Fredericksburg Herb Farm bath products (Yum!) 8. My tin whistle and song books 9. Bailey's Irish Cream (again, by the case!) 10. More books.....

| 1. My Cat- I Need Someone To Keep Me Company, And A... | Sep 4th. at 9:07:01 pm EDT |

| DolphinSmile (Allen, Texas US) | Age: 20 |

1. My cat- I need someone to keep me company, and a volleyball just won't do. 2. A picture of my boyfriend 3. toilet paper 4. a knife 5. A CD player 6. my CD collection (if that doesn't count as one item, I have to at least have Abbey Road- aka best album ever) 7. Some big thick book I haven't read yet or several books 8. My art supplies (sketchbook, pencils, eraser, etc) 9. Bug repellant (I must taste really good or something, because whenever I go outside...) 10. Field guide to tropical island wildlife
I thought about ritual items like some people said, but then I thought, why bother? I bet the island has plenty of stuff on it to use. Hey, if I am sure I'm going to be rescued eventually, this actually sounds pretty fun!

| Wow, This Is Difficult! Thankfully It's Only Hypothetical. Well Here It Goes... | Sep 4th. at 11:33:27 am EDT |

| Autumn (New York, New York US) | Age: 34 - Email |

Wow, this is difficult! Thankfully it's only hypothetical. Well here it goes:
1. Bug repellant! (who knows what kind of creepy critters may find me appetizing) 2. SUNSCREEN! 3. A collection of pagan chants 4. A knife to cut local herbs! Preferably my consecrated bolline, but any would do. 5. First Aid Kit (for those nasty possible snakebites and cuts, etc.) 6. The Illyad and the Odessey to pass the time and entertain myself. 7. A drum! (maybe I'd finally have the time and focus to get better) 8. A battery powered massager (no explaination needed there!) 9. A camera to photograph my, hopefully, beautiful and untouched surroundings 10.A picture of my live-in boyfriend to attach to the wall of my makeshift hut!
