This week my fiancee, Greg, is stuck on the Deserted Island. After seeing how many people were participating, he decided he would give it a go. Greg is a big sports fan, especially hockey, and loves to read biographies about different players, sports related books and is a HUGE fan of Dean Koontz and Alex Kava.
5 things I would want with me if I were stuck on a deserted island:
Sasha and Esme |
1) My cats - they are my girls, I'd miss them too much to not have them with me.
2) A bottle of rum - you can clean wounds with alcohol and it's tasty
3) Matches - to make fire to cook on and keep warm
4) A shovel - you can dig holes to bury things, you can use it to chop at things
(if you have a spade type shovel with the sharper edges)
5) Yo-yo - to pass the time, I'd try to master many tricks
5 books I would want with my if I were stuck on a deserted island:
1) Dragon Tears by Dean Koontz - my fave author... couldn't be stranded without one of his novels
2) The Walking Dead by Robert Kirkman - if you haven't watched the show or read the graphic novels - DO IT!
3) Uncle John's Bathroom Reader: Shoots and Scores - this is a handy little book filled with all sorts of hockey tidbits
4) A survival book - this is a must for any stranded person... it will help me know what I can eat, how to build things etc
5) The latest Sportsnet Magazine -va great spots magazine that every guy should read
Thanks for stopping by Greg!
What a cool list!
