You are to be marooned on a desert island. You can choose four people to stay with you. Two men and two women, but one of each has to be living and one of each has to be dead ( god is marooning you). Can not be family.


Men
I would choose belushi ( with drugs) for entertainment.
and
Ray mears - alround nice guy and survial expert.

Women
Kylie Manogue ( spelling ?) - sex and singing
and


I have really struggled for a greartwoman that is dead that I would have with me .

Any suggestions and who would you take.

Cycler

Phil Hartman for entertainment<p>My friend T.A.M. all around good guy and between the two of us we could figure the shit out or kill each other.<p>Elisa Bridges damn she was hot.<p>My friend Kelli she's hot and fun and well we would either enjoy the island or kill each other. Win Win in either case.

Men -

My father since being marooned on a desert island together would probably give us the time to finally work through all the father/son stuff that gets in the way of our relationship.

Jesus - I want to know what he really thought and taught. Besides, with him around all we'd need was a single bottle of wine, loaf of bread and a fish.

Women -

My wife for pretty much the same reason as my father.

Yeshe Tsogyal - One of the greatest Tibetan Buddhist teachers. She was the consort of Padmasambhava, who brought Buddhism to Tibet and was the one who recorded all of his teachings.

Damn this is hard.

Men:
Barry Sheene (RIP) - two time world motorcyle champion, legend, playboy, comedian and all round good guy.
As for the non-dead guy.... I dont know maybe Valentino Rossi (todays Barry Sheene), he may even bring along one of his model girlfriends!

Women:
Marilyn Monroe (RIP) - aside from the obvious reasons, whilist on the island I would write an authorised tell all auto-biography so that should I ever get my fat ass of the island I'd become filthy stinking rich (instead of just filthy and stinking).
And yeah Kylie Minouge would be an interseting prospect. Maybe NIgella Lawson or whaterver her name is so she can cook me dinner

rsl12

i guess i should respond since my avatar depicts this situation. for the sake of making it interesting, i will limit my choices to famous people.

living woman: martha stewart, who would be obsessed enough with cleanliness that, if i didn't cleam myself, she would clean up for me. also, i think she's *cute* as a dimple, no matter what kind of conniving bitch others may think she is.

dead woman: sylvia plath, who is a fine poetess, similar in temperment to me, and HOT as hell.

dead man: frank lloyd wright, the architect. i want a nice crib!

living man: bill clinton, for intellectual conversation and to handle all the diplomatic niceness that will be necessary with 5 megalomaniacs on a small island.

Interesting question

Men - I would take my father, who has been deceased for the last 16 years. I would like to catch up. And probably Dave Chapelle for the jokes.
Women - Natalie Portman w/o a doubt...and I dont really know about the dead woman...monroe came to mind, but I dunno.

Phaenx

Steve Erwin - Entertainment, and to keep the monsters away.

Douglas Macarthur - Who else to keep around in case you need to kick someones ass?

Victoria Pratt - We need at least one hot chick for my manly needs. Plus she's in shape and can clean the hut and collect food.

Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile - Cooking my dinner.

clavus

I don't know who I'd pick, but the living ones should be strong enough to bury the dead ones. I don't want to be stuck on an island with a couple of rotting corpses, that's for damned sure.

Men:
I'm with Phaenx on having Steve Erwin, he's funny, and he's not gay
RIP- My old scoutmaster Phil, he taught me to survive WITHOUT a pocket knive

Women:
Well, I should probably let Steve have his wife, so I don't have any competition
RIP- hmm, how about cleopatra, preferably around the age of 18 (I'm 20), that'd be nice...

It would probably be me, myself, and I for men, and my future wife for women. A deserted island is too small for 5 people, though after a bit i might want to visit another isle for a little while.

Guys:
John Lennon - bound to be some interesting topics of conversation flowing from his brain
Jesus - he can surf without a surfboard

Gals:
Natalie Portman - she is one fine-looking lady
any dead woman that could cook well would be fine with me

Hmmm......
Females:
Alive- Jewel (for spiritual talk and music) or one of the girls from Friends (they are all so funny)
Dead- Judy Garland (she just seemed so cool)

Males:
Alive- Mike Myers to keep me rofl or one of the guys from Friends (they are all so funny too)
Dead- Frank Sinatra (for his awesome music)

moonstrucksoul

my living male would be- tom hanks, he has experience with the marooned on an island thing , besides he is funny and seems down to earth.
my dead male- Bruce Lee, i think that he would be an inspiration as well as someone to keep your ass in line.
my living female- Angelina Jolie, because she has the biggest . . .
heart, and is an amazing humanitarian.
my dead female- definately Audrey Hepburn, because she is the most beautiful dead women i know.

nirol

Dead Guy: John Candy, he is big enough to make a boat out of.
Dead Chick: Mama Cass Elliot, same reason, + could use the extra skin for a sail.
Live Guy: Dennis Connor, America's Cup captain, to sail the Candy-Cass yacht.
Live Chick: Natalie Merchant, for .....duh, and to sing to me while I rest up in between.

McGuyver(sp?) - so many uses for duct tape!
Cary Grant *swoon*

I love the answers and forgive my ignorance goggling some of the names.
Please say if they arte NSFW, as it nice to look at naked women, but not with workmates looking over your shoulder.

Audrey Hepburn - poss for my choice of dead woman ( reincarnated not a rotting corpse).

aurigus

Dead Guy: Jesus. Would definately be cool to meet the guy. Plus he can perform miracles.
Dead Chick: Joan of Arc. She would seem pretty handy.

Live Guy: This is a tough one. I think I would pick Bill Clinton also. He seems like an interesting guy and could handle himself well in the wilderness. MacGuyver would be cool also, but I guess he is a fictional person.
Live Chick: Britney Spears. She can be my Ginger any day.

Sho Nuff

Dead Guy - Siddhartha Gautama for the sake of philosophical discussion. But I doubt he'd be of much use when it came time to work

Living Guy - My buddy Froz. Hard worker. Smart Guy. Good conversationalist. Martial Artist to train with.

Dead Chick - Frida Kahlo - Artist and revolutionary. Strong willed and courageous to keep the group motivated.

Living Chick - My ex girlfriend. Shes tough, a survivor, sexy and strong willed.

Okay... the dead people are easy...

Meriame (my step daughter who died in car accident when she was 17)... so that I could tell how much she was loved, and tell her what a beautiful person she was.

Jeff (boyfriend who committed suicide when we were both 22)... so that I could also tell him how much I loved him... and what an amazing man I thought he was.

Live People? Hard to pick anyone besides my husband and children.

hmmm... perhaps the Dahli Lama... because he inspires me... and my best friend Deb... because she loves me for me... and we have a blast together even when we're doing nothing.

great thread btw...

:::OshnSoul:::

I think I would have to say Sharon Osbourne instead of Jewel
and possibly Buddha instead of Frank

jbrooks544

men:
Ernest Shakelton: Famed seaman and explorer. His job would be to captain the boat we built. He saved his entire crew and sailed through 80 foot waves after getting trapped in the ice.

Guy #2 - Some guy who is really good at making boats from logs.

Woman 1: shauna grant - dead porno actress

Woman 2: sandy - current favorite porno actress.

My plan is: Make a boat and sail to safety. While doing this, have sex with great women.

Men: Tom hanks & Wilson

Desert island, hmm?
Is it an actual desert island or a deserted island?

For the men, I would bring along Alexander Selkirk for my dead guy, and Paul James from HGTV.

For the women, I would bring Nora Roberts, and Marie Callender for my deceased female.

Okay, that's a tough question you've posed for us....so here's my picks!

MEN

Living: Hef. The guy has lived! While I may or may not agree with the choices he's made in his life, I'm certain that there'd be a ton of stuff we could discuss....plus, eventually his 7 girlfriends would come looking for him. Rescued!!!
Dead: Cary Grant (or Archibald Leach, as he was legally named). I've always enjoyed (and somewhat envied) his style, grace, wit and irrepressable charm. Perhaps I'd learn a thing or two hanging around with him?

WOMEN

Living: Asia Carrera. She's hot, "experienced" like nobody's business, and a MENSA member. She'd fit in nicely.
Dead: Catherine Hepburn....a young Catherine Hepburn. Smarter than most ever knew (or even suspected), she'd be someone I'd enjoy spending hours just shooting the breeze with, or just experiencing life along side. And since her vocal-tremors only became evident later in life, a young Ms. Hepburn wouldn't have that difficulty on the island.

Okay, those are my choices. I'll stand by 'em.

djtestudo

Living male: my ex-roommate Duke. Spent two years in a college dorm room with a succession of other roommates constantly in and out for various reasons, so we can get along. Plus, at that point there is a good chance I wouldn't be worried about the effects of drugs/alcohol to avoid them, and he ALWAYS has connections .

Dead male: The man who was the inspiration for "Robinson Cruiso". I don't remember his name, but he actually spent years on a deserted island before rescue.

Living woman: Another vote for Natalie Portman. If I have to spred my genes, might as well be with someone who's drop-dead gorgeous

Dead woman: Audrey Hepburn. See above for reasoning.
