Don't leave home without one...five years on an island can be VERY

It could be worse. You could be stuck on the island with only a
solar-powered DVD player and only two DVDs: _Madame Doubtfire_ and
_Battlefield Earth_.

That's why on any over water flight of any significant length, I always
bring my entire DVD collection along and leave the life vests at home.
Better to drown than die of boredom.
