Question of the Week by Sara List 5 people dead or alive you would want stranded with you on a desert island for 3 weeks. You probably want to choose people that are rugged, built for survival and can hunt down food for you and the others. Your best friend may be nice to talk to, but, can they survive in the wilderness? 1-2. My parents. They've taught me all the surival skills I have now, and they're great camping cooks! 3. The Professor from Gilligan's Island. 4. A sexy man who hunts - not for sport but for food. The sexy part is essential... gotta have a couple different types of meat. *snicker* 5. My cat. She warns me of nasty creatures.
