Marooned on an island, what 3 people would you want with you?

At first i didn't quite get the image and thought it had something to with standing up for violence against women.
Read that again -- you might want to rephrase that sentence! :p

As for myself, I'm against domestic violence. I say we should keep violence on the street where it belongs.

Now back to our regularly scheduled topic . . .
 
fictional: Methos, Hugh Fitzcairn and Sir Richard Burton (not the Liz Taylor one but the one from Riverworld)

real: Peter Wingfield, David Abramowitz, Jim Byrnes

BBSers: Santaman, RJDiogenes and Jim Gamma (that was a tough choice, with being restricted to 3 only. I'd want Auntie, Bonzie and Ghostie, too! And Spaceball, Trekkiedane, Trampledamage, OZ, and a gazillion more. But somehow TrekBBS is like an island anyway :D)
 
Prior to picking trekbbs'ers for my island I would do exhaustive searches, zeroing in on any who indicated extra levels of fitness and outdoors skills. I would discard all the mostly useless folk (such as myself).
 
Can't I just take books, or music albums? :)

I guess right now I'd be taking the baby, because it's still in me, and therefore I'd want my OB and my husband. Which still leaves me in charge of all the shelter-building, food-finding and coconut-radio-building.

Minus baby, however, I'd go with a cabana boy who can make cool tropical drinks out of whatever's on the island, a guy who can play steel drum music, and my mom. We both need a vacation, and if this is how we get it, so be it.

Then the penny dropped.


The internet can be such a gross douchebag fratboy at times.

Lighten up, it's hilarious!


did i say i didn't find it funny? I actually thought it was pure comedic gold.
The "gross douchebag fratboy" characterization sounded more negative than positive.
 
1. Supergirl (unconscious due to Kryptonite, has to be rescued)
2. Batgirl
3. Jane (Tarzan gets swallowed by a shark while we're swimming to shore)
 
If Trek characters only: Seven of Nine, Beverly Crusher, and Samantha Wildman.

Then I wouldn't even care about being rescued. :evil:
 
My friend's husband, a former Green Beret who taught a wilderness survival class. He knows his stuff.

His wife, because I can't split up a couple.

my friend who attracts animals and can literally smell bears. He also vacations in his canoe in Canada for a week every year. He also makes a living painting animals and plants, and knows a lot of stuff about various edible flora and fauna
 
I'd actually like to have the thread started regarding teacake's idea about TrekBBS posters to be stranded with. :angel: :D

I won't stop you guys, but I'd rather we didn't. We used to have a string of those popularity contest threads (which, regardless of intentions, is what they always boil down to) and it always winds up making people feel left out and that things are way too cliquey around here. Plus, when you start one, it always prompts people to start a bunch more, which contributes to the problem I mentioned above.
