10 Things I'd Take to a Desert Island Self-Exile

(excluding survival stuff

As always, in no particular order:

1. Dragonriders of Pern - Comfort Book #1
2. My violin -- I'd finally have time to practice.
3. The Lord of the Rings
4. The entire Chung Kuo saga. (Excellent books. Read them.)
5. Twilight in the Forbidden City - a history of the Emperor Pu Yi
6. Shakespeare's Complete Works
7. A simple iron ring that my grandmother owned
8. My collection of toy spaceships (blush)
9. My box of ritual supplies.
10. Jumper, by Steven Gould

hey, here's a topic I always love to think on.


hrmm.. what would I take..

- My collection (handed down from my grandfather) of Shakespear's complete (not really, I'm missing 2 of the 12 volumes) works.

- My copy of the I Ching.

- My copy of the Bible

- My copy (handed down from my dad from when he went through college) of Norton's Anthology of English Literature

- My copy of Die Unendliche Geschichte (in hardbound!).

- My German/English dictionary :)

- hell, just fill the rest of the spots with various survivial stuff. Plastic containers and tarp for water collection/purification and some knife and flint&steel bits..
