Argh… sorry… Zenster
Using the natural adhesive of barnacles, I can assemble clamshells and coral into amusing little dancing frog figurines, which could then be used as currency.
And I can help to extract salt from seawater via evaporation, in case of zombies. Lots of zombies on desert islands, so you can never have enough salt. I always carry a packet on my person, so I’d have a head start.
I also know a special trick for calling coquina clams up out of the sand, in case we want to make delicious coquina soup. The leftover shells can be used to make more frog figurines.
** Collounsbury ** - Welcome back. I’ve been reading your GD threads. Precisely why you are in the OP, you are rational poster. We’d need that on an isle such as this.
You are so sauce!
No television, computers or indoor plumbing? I would try to figure out how to make a boat and get the hell out of there.
Hey, hey ! We’re workin’ on the indoor plumbing! Dopevaria can’t be built in a day you know !!!
Who needs TV and computers with the Tropical Recitation Society around?
D’oh! :smack:
I will learn to preview…I will learn to preview…I will learn to preview…I will learn to preview…
Oh wait… On the Isle if Cecily we won’t have to worry about typos! Whew…
The Tropical Recitation Society? What could I possibly have been thinking!
Damn, I’d sacrifice some of my toes for one lousy hammer.
Hrm, I would find my situation rather depressing on that island, as I have neither experience in any particular trade (like astro-coconut physics) nor am I excessively intelligent…
Chances are I’d be wiling away my time writing angry letters to the editor of all the papers that pissed me off, stuffing the letters into bottles then casting them into the sea.
FOLKS!! - We still don’t know what we would do about finding Cecil. Isn’t it true we have no idea what he looks like? I am sure someone knows what Ed Zotti looks like but what the heck? Who knows what Cecil looks like???
I like the name for the island Cecily!
I wouldn’t worry too much about Cecil. I imagine he will rise of his own accord to his proper level.
I would worry about Zenster though. It appears just the thought of being shipwrecked with us has already gotten to him. Count your fingers when you wake up.
We in the entertainment crew will provide not only recitals of popular shows but original entertainment too. That stuff will just take longer to get off the ground.
Boat, schmoat. I’m recruiting Trek Dopers to work on a coconut-based Transporter. Unfortunately, our early experiements haven’t gone that well; the wild boar we tried to beam from one side of the island to another rematerialized with coconut shells instead of hooves.
What is all this boat business; You want to leave? why?
I will just work on my tan, maybe start a nice little crop of peace inducing herbs, and start to practice Rastafarianism. Eventually I could set up a jerk stand but someone would have to figure out how to make the Red Stripe.
I’ll be practising RashenFrashenism.
Everytime something goes wrong, which it will quite often, I’m sure, I’ll just look at it and mumble, “Rashen Frashen…”
Thank you. It just came to me as only this place can inspire… * Isle of Cecily* 
I’d stay, but then I’d have to hunt down flybynight and gag him to put an end to the maniacal laughter.
Well you could always try asking me to stop first before resorting to those methods. It might work. I might require a first-born to stop though. I don’t know what I’d do with the first-borns, I just like typing “first-born” for some reason. It sounds like something an evil, maniacally laughing madman would talk about a lot. And I think being trapped on an island would quickly turn me into a maniacal madman (I like the word maniacal too).
It might work. I couldn’t take the chance of you wanting a first-born, though. So, I’ll just build my boat.

Yeah, me too.
nudges Branwen, while carefully not looking at anyone in particular So, umm…do you suppose there are any field mice on this island?
