Advil
Got my chocolate. Got my pizza. Now its time for a lifetime supply of my favorite painkiller. Advil rocks. And things can happen out on an island for etenity. You can get headaches, or toothaches (at least if you are on my miserable island), you can get sunburned in sensitve areas as you frolic nude down the beach, you could get stung by a jellyfish, or boinked on the head by a coconut, you could strain something while breaking off another big chunk of choclate from your stack of candy bars. Its a dangerous place. And now I am equipped for any contingency. Advil = magic pills. There is no comparison until you hit the prescription stuff.
I'm remaining in the generalized side of this draft with my next pick. Since I already have life, and love, I need this next choice to keep things interesting. Growing up as an only child, I learned from a young age the great entertainment possibilities of having some of this stuff readily available, and the limitless potential of it. With my 3rd selection, I choose:
Imagination
Imagination is the faculty through which we encounter everything. The things that we touch, see and hear coalesce into a "picture" via our imagination.
Imagination is also the ability to form mental images, sensations and concepts, in a moment when they are not perceived through sight, hearing or other senses. Imagination helps provide meaning to experience and understanding to knowledge; it is a fundamental facility through which people make sense of the world, and is a critical step in the learning process. Imagination is the creative process that allows mankind to dream that anything is possible, and, along with necessity, is the mother of invention.

Imagination is an experimental partition of the mind used to create theories and ideas based on functions. Taking objects from real perceptions, the imagination uses complex IF-functions to create new or revised ideas. This part of the mind is vital to developing better and easier ways to accomplish old and new tasks. These experimental ideas can be safely conducted inside a virtual world and then, if the idea is probable and the function is true, the idea can be actualized in reality. Imagination is the key to new development of the mind and can be shared with others, progressing collectively.

With my next pick.
**Edit: 7-19 .... This is my food pick. Whatever the chef can make, he can make for me. With the recent bang in the food choice I felt I needed to clarify.
Chef Gordan Ramsey, my very own personal chef.
No matter what, whenever I watch his show, I get a watery mouth and need food. No matter how full I am.
If his food can LOOK so good, I NEED to know how it tastes!
Whatever the heck Chef can cook, he can cook it for me.

With my next pick, I say: suck it, carbs!
Italian Food -- Mmmmmmmmm, nummy nummies. Focaccia, calamari, calzone, ravioli, veal saltimbocca, cannoli, spumoni... Of all the food items on my list (and there are lots), this was easily the most important. Also the most broad. I want it all.

I got some food with my last pick, so now I need something to wash it all down.
An Eternally Stocked Full Bar -- not this exact bar, of course, but something hip and divey in which to hang out. And, since it will undoubtedly be brought up, yes I realize that this is similar to earlier picks. We've already seen beer, liquor, alcohol, red wine, and even Coca-Cola taken. However, as I see it, a bar is more inclusive than any of those picks (a truly full bar would include them all, in addition to various mixers and juices). Additionally, it is far more specific in terms of location and atmosphere.
