Ok, so ya'all know I'm moving out to a tiny little island for the next year.. Since there are only 23 people that live on this island, I will need something to do for fun.. I need ideas on things I can take with me that will entertain me and keep me from getting ‘island fever’ (not to be confused with ‘disco fever’) What cool new toy is out there? I have a laptop and Mp3 and Xbox and all that crap, but is there something I’m missing? Is there something out there that has not found it’s way into my life to bring me endless amounts of joy in the middle of nowhere.. something that can change my life, improve my existence and maybe make jell-o at the same time?! If so, I must know! I’ll buy 2… or 3 if it’s real bad…

Everything about the post would scream "porn" to a lesser individual, but not me.

that's amazing!! can i ask why you are moving to this island?
Errmmm maybe a cool camera that would work underwater so you could scuba and take cool pics for us to see :D
i can't really think of anything...maybe a water filter in case the island doesn't have very much drinkable water?

a bunch of good books-----whatever you like to read......
a portable dvd player -------with your favorite movies( i swear the more watch the same movies the more new things you see)
you have to have video games--xbox-----------with your laptop pick up some games for the computer.
crossword puzzles if you like words........
last but most important is------------an inflatable doll (this will help keep you warm at night) so i have heard...i think.......let me know

I would go with writing the book thing. Just keep a journal on your laptop and when its all over write a book about it. I am sure some publisher out there would be very interested in a book about someone who is living on an island for a year.

I agree with Molson Girl, hack-e-sack and a soccer ball will keep you going for months, and when you come off the island, who knows, maybe you'll be the next Pele.

Take the complete works of Shakespeare with you. You'll come back speaking in iambic pentameter, which I hear is a big hit with the ladies of Florida.

Sorry to say this Briley but........Yikes.
Aaaaaaanywho....this probably won't be of any use to you JT but my three would prolly be my baseball love and ball(does that count as one?), my boardshorts, and a laptop with super duper wireless capabilities. I could so imagine chilling on a deserted beach in my shorts while writing the next great travel novel with some music playing on the internet radio.
Yeeeeeah
