What would you would bring to that island today. Is it different from yesterday's choice?
What thing stands above all else today as the thing you would bring to that lonely, desolate island everyone is always musing about. And what will tomorrow bring that will make that thing you just named with such certainty become second-rate, almost unthinkable, as compared with the newly discovered item that then serves as the replacement.



For example, consider some kid you might have gone to college with, suppose a Lutheran from the Midwest who as an adolescent would have brought his Metallica, but in his 20's, his beer, and by his 30's, a bible.



Now consider you.
