Only because she's my wife........

OK, so my wife tagged me to do a "Three Favorite Things to Bring if you’re on a Deserted Island" type of post a week ago and she's been bugging me to do it. I'm not sure how I'm going to narrow it down on some of these, but here goes:

Books
OK, I don’t read. I get bored too easily. Can’t I just keep getting Motor Trend sent to me on this island? I guess I’ll just bring three books I can read to my daughter.

1. A Baker's Dozen by the One and Only Dr. Seuss
2. The Complete Tails of Winnie the Pooh
3. J.R.R. Tolkien – The Hobbit – She (and I) would have to read this before we were allowed to watch the LOTR Trilogy that my wife was bringing.

Movies
Now this is going to be tough…………………..I have so many movies that I love to watch (and quote), but which ones do I bring:

1. Cannonball Run (hence the name the blog) – I have to have my daughter understand what I’m talking about when I randomly quote this movie.
2. Star Wars (now I’m going to cheat and bring all six movies; so too bad)
3. The Godfather Trilogy – How could I not bring these movies?

Music
This also will be hard, because of my range in musical tastes. I think I’ll need a couple of different types so I can vary depending on my mood:

1. Led Zeppelin – Complete Studio Recordings (Ya gotta love box sets for situations like this). This set has every album that Zep ever released, plus “Hey, Hey What Can I do” as an added track on Coda.
2. Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon – I figure there will be something to smoke on the island………..I mean hell, if I’m gonna be there forever, I’m gonna have fun!
3. The Very Best of Frank Sinatra – I mean really………..how do you say no to Frank?

People
Now from what I am told, I can’t take my wife or Allie as people I’d take because by default, they would be there. So who would I bring?

1. My mom. There’s no way she’d be able to live without seeing her grand-daughter ever again.
2. My friend Matt. He and I could build or fix anything. Not to mention we have been friends since elementary school and he was the best man at my wedding. That alone should be enough reason to bring him.
3. The third person is hard………….I couldn’t bring any of my four siblings. It’s either all or none. Plus some of them have kids and significant others. I wouldn’t take them away from their families. I guess I’d say “Captain Jack Sparrow” from "Pirates of the Caribbean". OK, ok………….I know he’s fake, but he seems to find the rum and a way off the damn island everytime!!

Tagging
I hate tagging people, because I don’t want anyone to feel like they have to do this. I know that if I say Point, his fiancee' Jennster will make him do it, so then I'll tag her too; also Issa's World. I'm never a fan of chain emails, letters or that kind of thing, so please, don't feel obligated to do it.
