Being Marooned [Thursday, June 24]

"Today, me hearties," Jack said from where he stood balanced easily on a gangplank (for they were all on the water today, floating a few hundred yards from a desert island (except for the Ikea in the background)), "you will put everything I have taught you to the test."

He pointed grandly to the Isle of Ikea Totally Deserted Island of Doom. "This is the Totally Deserted Island of Doom!" he said. "Forage for food! Create shelter! Make fire! Find a way to escape!"

He grinned. "And most important of all, have a good story t' tell when you have." He pointed to the first student. "Off you go, then. Please do try not to die. It would involve what I've been told is a truly terrifying amount of paperwork."

Lion-o build himself a basic shelter with palm fronds. Then he checked his pockets and came up with $8.25. He ended up at Ikea to get a plate of Swedish meatballs and still had enough leftover to buy a cinnamon bun on the way out. It was really a shame his new home world didn't have an Ikea.
