~Question of the Day~

[Mid]

If you were stranded on a deserted island, what five things would you want to have with you?

What was the first job you ever had, and how old were you?

[margypops]

soft mattress or bed of some sort,skin cream,hairbrush, few pieces of underwear, radio and batteries.  First job was Motherhood from college. Loved it....

[lagoya]

to wannabenana     {who or what is tom        i'm curious now

i forgot to add i would have my dog ....somebody would have to yelp if a ship passed just in case there was no fuel for my power boat........

if we were all stuck on the same island with all of the above ..it would be some party yeah

[AHP84]

Wow, I think I'm too realistic. I take things too seriously, lol.

1. a hunting knife
2. flint rocks
3. rope, lots of it
4. a book of plants used for medicines/remedies
5. a water purifier (it evaporates the water from the salt in seawater and filters it so it's safe to drink)

My first job was at a vet clinic as a kennel attendant when I was 16. It s*cked. The owners of the clinic, which was a ritzy, luxury hotel-looking setup, were stuck-up, mean, degrading snobs and they treated me like I was the dog poo that I cleaned up for them, so I quit after a month.

First job - 16 @ McDonald's to save for the first car in the other post.  Did that and mowed lawns, too!  

McDonald's - 1976   "Big Mac, Fries, and CHANGE back from your Dollar!"

I met some NY Yankee Baseball players who always came into the store like Catfish Hunter ... we never asked if his $50 bill was real or not LOL!

My first job besides babysitting was when I was 14 at a dry cleaners. We had to empty out the pants pockets before washing and then put the found items in a bag that said 'Look what we found". One time I found ladies undies in a mans trousers, I put them in the little baggy ;)

[Quinns momma]

Oh yes, it will work out perfectly then...

[GRose]

BOB
Bacardi
Diet coke
wine
beer.
I am assuming this island would have limes for my Bacardi and Diet

I get bored with drinking the same thing every night.
I can find food on the island, I can drink water when it rains. I can use mud for sunscreen.

[surprisebaby]

LMAO!!!! TOO FUNNY!!! As long as you share your cheetos, and your laptop!  You can keep your men...I am not really into sharing...

I will have to bring "BOB" with me...
"B" attery  "O"perated "B"oyfriend...

[Quinns momma]

Also would be nice if Surprise was there so I could share her alcohol.

[Quinns momma]

First job was at 15 in a local flower shop.

1.On a deserted island I would want my laptop so I could see what the heck you all were up to.

2. Sunscreen, I am a fair skinned Irish girl and burn easily.

3. James Hetfield from Metallica or Clive Owen for my sexual pleasure/boy toy.

4. My daughter as she cracks me up. Of course will not mess with above mentioned    men until nap time.

5. Cheetos

[surprisebaby]
