  Computers & Internet - General - After The Shipwreck

 There was this male engineer, on a cruise ship in the Caribbean
 for the first time.
 
 It was wonderful, the experience of his life. He was being waited
 on hand and foot. But, it did not last. A Hurricane came up
 unexpectedly. The ship went down almost instantly. 
 
 The man found himself, he knew not how, swept up on the shore of
 an island. There was nothing else anywhere to be seen. No person,
 no supplies, nothing. The man looked around. There were some
 bananas and coconuts, but that was it. He was desperate, and
 forlorn, but decided to make the best of it. So for the next four
 months he ate bananas, drank coconut juice and mostly looked to
 the sea mightily for a ship to come to his rescue.
 
 One day, as he was lying on the beach stroking his beard and
 looking for a ship, he spotted movement out of the corner of his
 eye. Could it be true, was it a ship? No, from around the corner
 of the island came this row-boat. In it was the most gorgeous
 woman he had ever seen, or at least seen in 4 months.
 
 She was tall, tanned, and her blond hair flowing in the sea breeze
 gave her an almost ethereal quality. She spotted him also as he was
 waving and yelling and screaming to get her attention.
 
 She rowed her boat towards him. In disbelief, he asked, "Where did
 you come from? How did you get here"? 
 
 She said, "I rowed from the other side of the island. I landed on
 this island when my cruise ship sank" 
 
 "Amazing", he said, "I didn't know anyone else had survived. How
 many of you are there? Where did you get the row-boat? You must
 have been really lucky to have a row-boat wash-up with you?" 
 
 "It is only me", she said, "and the row-boat didn't wash up,
 nothing else did."
 
 "Well then", said the man, "how did you get the row-boat?" 
 
 "I made the row-boat out of raw material that I found on the island",
 replied the woman. "The oars were whittled from Gum tree branches,
 I wove the bottom from Palm branches, and the sides and stern came
 from a Eucalyptus tree"
 
 "But, but", asked the man, "what about tools and hardware, how did
 you do that?"
 
 "Oh, no problem", replied the woman, "on the south side of the
 island there is a very unusual strata of alluvial rock exposed. I
 found that If I fired it to a certain temperature in my kiln, it
 melted into forgeable ductile iron. I used that for tools, and
 used the tools to make the hardware. But, enough of that", she
 continued. "Where do you live?"
 
 At last the man was forced to confess that he had been sleeping on
 the beach. 
 
 "Well, let's row over to my place", she said. So they both got
 into the row-boat and left for her side of island. The woman
 easily rowed them around to a wharf that led to the approach to
 her place. She tied up the row-boat with a beautifully woven hemp
 rope. They walked up a stone walk and around a Palm tree, there
 stood an exquisite bungalow painted in blue and white.
 
 "It's not much", she said, "but I call it home. Sit down please,
 would you like to have a drink?" 
 
 "No", said the man, "one more coconut juice and I will puke."
 
 "It won't be coconut juice", the woman replied, "I have a still,
 how about a Pina Colada?" Trying to hide his continued amazement,
 the man accepted, and they sat down on her couch to talk. After a
 while, when they had exchanged their stories, the woman asked,
 "Tell me, have you always had a beard?" 
 
 "No", the man replied, "I was clean shaven all of my life, and
 even on the cruise ship"
 
 "Well if you would like to shave, there is a man's razor upstairs
 in the cabinet in the bathroom." So, the man, no longer
 questioning anything, went upstairs to the bathroom. There in the
 cabinet was a razor made from a bone handle, two shells honed to a
 hollow ground edge were fastened on to its end inside of a swivel
 mechanism. The man shaved, showered and went back down stairs..
 
 "You look great", said the woman, "I think I will go up and slip
 into something more comfortable." So she did. And, the man
 continued to sip his Pina Colada. After a short time, the woman
 returned - this time wearing fig leafs strategically positioned
 and smelling faintly of gardenia.
 
 "Tell me", she asked, "we have both been out here for a very long
 time with no companionship. You know what I mean. Have you been
 lonely, is there anything that you really miss? Something that all
 men and women need? Something that it would be really nice to have
 right now?"
 
 "Yes there is", the man replied, as he moved closer to the woman
 while fixing a winsome gaze upon her, "Tell me ... Do you happen
 to have an Internet connection?"
