BLANKET, keeps you warm. SHOES, prevents from stepping on hot sand, PAN, for cookin',BIBLE, in case I forget why I'm here for. KNIFE, to cut. MATCHES, for rubbing sticks for fire, drives me crazy. AVoCADO PIT, to grow for shade and food.\nI would take JESUS with me to comfort me, and when I build the raft, he would provide enough fish to eat, he would calm the angry seas, his light would break through the fog, and he would show me the way! Besides when we hit land, everyone knows him and we would get the VIP treatment.!

Amazing that I can be dumb enough to get stranded on an island. .. but remember to bring one of those items.  \n\nProblems with the choice selection  . . .\nA -- does anyone really pack toilet paper.  It's one item I don't think I have EVER packed when traveling\nB -- how long are you going to be stuck on this island?   How long would you underwear really stay clean for? Didn't you start the day before you dumb a$$ got stranded with fresh undies\nC -- what good is a toothbrush without toothpaste or running water.  Would you really stick your toothbrush into the mucky yucky water -- past stranded people have used as a toilet??\n\nANYWAY  ... if I were to be stranded on an island all alone and have to pick one of these things it would be .... \n\nA -- Toilet paper.  While waiting for my dirty underwear to dry from being washed in the water ... I could make a TOILET PAPER TOGA.   PLUS not knowing what I am eating on this island I don't want to end up with the runs and then having to find a leaf or something.  If I was dumb enough to be stranded without provisions, I am probably dumb enough to end up using poison ivy/oak to wipe myself.

first and foremost is to get away from the volcano - follow the guidelines issued by the office of the volcanologist. 2nd, before you leave the place bring with you your family and personal documents like passport land titles, etc. thirdly as you are running away if there is no vehicle, pray for your safety and the other people in the area

bring flip flops for the showers....they can be pretty disgusting...bring a flashlight for nighttime bathroom trips.  Bring layers of clothes for sleeping..it will be colder during the night, but when the sun comes up in the am..you will be sweltering.  Bring your sense of adventure, and be ok with looking a little scraggly for the duration of the trip.  Bring stuff for smores!!!!  You can go to the beach, take hikes, walk, have campfires, it is really fun..

These are the typical precautions you should take before heading out on an outdoor excursion:\n\n1.Know where you are going and get a map of the area\n2.Know the weather and be prepared for it\n3.Make a trip plan and leave a copy of it with someone who can be trusted\n4.Bring the ten essentials plus any overnight/multiday gear you may need\n\nTen Essentials:\n1. Map/Compass\n2. Flashlight / Headlamp (with spare batteries/bulb)\n3. Extra Water \n4. Extra Clothes (Rain Gear)\n5. Extra Food \n6. First-Aid Kit\n7. Pocket Knife or Multi Purpose Tool\n8. Waterproof Matches/Fire starter\n9. Sunglasses/Sunscreen\n10. Whistle/signal mirror\n\nMulti-day/Overnight Gear\n1.Shelter (Tent, Tarp or other)\n2.Sleeping Bag (appropriate temp rating)\n3.Backpack\n4.Stove and Fuel\n\nThis is a basic list, you may need other things like bug spray, winter travel gear, or other equipment depending on where and when you are traveling.  It is always better to travel with a group of 4 or more people so that if one person becomes injured someone can stay with them while allowing at least two people to go for help.

Too bad others can't give thought provoking questions like this. That's a tough one. There are so many things I'm sure I'll never get to do. I think the one thing I'd like to do most is go on a driving trip through all of Europe and see the places I've only read about. I'd start in Iceland and go from there. Of course I know I couldn't drive over the water. That's what ferries are for.

probably a tree. your strong-you live to be very old. you see so much if your in town. you dont see anything if your in the wilderness (which would be awesome). all you do is drink and baste in the sun. your a home to innocent animals. i could go on, but i wont.

I would bring my husbands friend, Mark. He just got back from Iraq as an infantryman, his survival skills are the best. I would bring a box of waterproof matches, a waterproof poncho that could be used as a tent,, the book "The Way Things Work", a handgun and either a Leatherman or Swiss Army knife.

Keep a selection of canned goods, Bottled water, candles, Flashlights, a basic first aid kit, dry clothing and blankets. Allow enough for 5 days for the whole family and add enough for an extra person so as you wont go short. Also some cash as teller machines could be out for a while. Other than that Things are specific for each type of disaster. (you need other things for a earthquake than for a tidal wave or volcanic explosion.
