If you became stranded on a deserted island with just one other person, who would you want that person to be...and why? The truth will set you free!

My best friend Cheryl . . . because she's so hyper that she would do all the work and I could sit around eating coconuts and writing on dry leaves with charcoal.

After that . . . Anne Hathaway or Nicole Kidman. ;-)

The unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of
Ray Mears.

Because, as long as there was a tree on the island, within a day we'd have a two story house with running water and vegetable patch.
Within a week of lounging around eating soup and drinking coconut schnapps, he'd have built a 40-foot steam ship with full bar to get us back to civilisation.

Someone who can catch, gut, and cook fish. You've never looked sexier, Jimbos.

I want to change my answer...I want Bear from Man vs. Wild. That guy would be downright useful. And look pretty damned sexy while he does it! :)

Somebody who could get us off the island and back to - uh...

Wait. Scratch that.

Mmmm - tropical paradise, Jimmy Page - nah, don't rescue us, we'll be in the tiki hut...

Keep in mind, if things get desperate, you may have to eat this person.

A pretty, teenaged white girl because they would NEVER stop looking for her...

In the toidy.
The dude who owns the boat anchored a few yards off shore.

No?

Okay, then I pick Bill Gates. Just watching him run around looking for a place to plug in and get connected would be so entertaining, I'd forget I was trapped there. Then, after all the coconuts and bananas are gone, I wouldn't feel bad at all about eating him.
