Book: Don Quixote. It's not my favorite book, but I don't think I could ever get tired of it. That or Robinson Crusoe, since I'd be able to relate to it.
Movie: Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail. Again, not my favorite, but if I'm trapped on an island, I'm gonna need a laugh and something I can watch over and over again.
Music: If I were trapped tomorrow, I'd probably go with The King is Dead by the Decemberists. It's all I've been listening to since Tuesday. Now sure what it'd be after I get down off that high. I'd probably go with The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me by Brand New normally. Something I could be all emo too but also rage when my loneliness finally drove me insane.
