    Where did they get the coconuts?
    They brought those with them.

    Where does it say that? Coconuts float, that's how they propagate island to island. The real lucky trick was catching the seagull.

    I dunno--them coconuts can be wily. And you got to be sure you make a clean shot because the last thing you want is for one to go rogue on you.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
