"Castaway" on a deserted Island

Just watched the movie "Castaway" with Tom Hanks last night where he is stranded on a deserted Island for 5 years....got me to thinking what I would do in that situation.What 5 items would you want to have for your survival if you were in that situation? Remember, you'll be on the island for 5 years. (Sorry...no volley balls or women permitted)

    Well Rembrandt, you have a point. Now If we are stuck on an island that means there are no rules. It also means you have to fend for yourself, right? If she ticks me off I will have her over for dinner! Who says you can't have steak for dinner while stranded on an island! LOL
