The Ultimate Desert Island Question

Post by fable »

I've heard a lot of desert island questions in the past. They usually go something like: If you could take one person with you to a desert island (or, alternatively, one CD, or one movie, or one luxury, or one book, etc), what would it be?

So I thought I'd ask the ultimate desert island question of you lot: If you could go to one desert island and bring anything with you that you currently possess, what desert island would it be?

Frasier Island, off the coast of Australia.

I'd bring... my sand bucket and pale. You know, like in case I get bored or something, I can make sand castles! :D

Also called the silhouette of passage, this phenomenon is the speciality of victims of directed-pressure explosions and of reckless cowards who are so eager to escape that they exit directly through the wall of a house, leaving a cookie-cutout-perfect hole. The threat of skunks or matrimony often catalyzes this reaction.

@Veh, what's Frasier Island like? You don't exactly make it sound like a thrilling tourist trap, but that's okay. ;)

Actually Fable, Frasier island is one of the ... if not the most beautiful island in the world. Of course I'm biased since I've been there many times, but it's truly an amazing place.

It's an island made of sand (like most I'd assume ;) ) but the life it sustains is amazing. Tropical mud crabs, varies bird species and uncounted vegetation species. If you could go anywhere, it's one of the nicest places you could.

But hey, everyone likes sand castles, so ;) Plus, I could rule the little crabs.. I'll build them houses, they can gather food ;) :D

*happy sigh* ;)

Hmmm, well I haven't been to any desert islands, so I really couldn't say... :rolleyes:

@Veh maybe the crabs could live in the sandcastles... :D

I would bring my boat, but I don't have one! :(

I would take my computer, but no power. :(

I would take my CAR! :) yeah that's it, but it wouldn't fare too well in the sand :(

I would take my couch, that's the only thing I think I could make use of. :)

Our first date:

Mr. Weasel: "Hello can you swim?"

Mrs. Weasel: "Yes I can"

Mr. Weasel: "Will you marry me?"
