Same here, except for the mp3 player. I would run out of bateries eventually, it is better to just let go on music. Perhaps, I would think bout carrying some tools and things useful to build a salt water purificator, like the kind they use in desert coast towns. A simple thing to collect sea water, evaporate it with the help of solar energy, and collect only the vapor, leaving the salt bellow. That would take care of the water issue. for food, well, with the same tool I would probably build a trap for fishes and stuff like that. Also, girls complain about things, so once again, the tools would help me build a decent desert island home, a bed, etc., in order for her to be comfortable and less complainy. I tiny reserve of chocolate would also help me with keeping the lady happy, though I would have to use it wiselly.

I couldn't possibly decide on which music albums to bring. And even if I could, the list would've been obsolete very soon (and even if it wouldn't, there wouldn't be any power to run the stereo). Instead, I'd bring an acoustic bassguitar (since there's no power for an amplifier, I would grow tired of barely hearing what I play if I'd bring an electric), I'd bring a lot of vegetable seeds, a salt**ter purification device for making drinkingwater (and water for the vegetable) and finally I'd bring a durable shed, to live in.

Edit: That is salt water (as one word).
