After his ship wrecked Cruso quotes:
"I was wet, had no clothes to shift me, nor anything either to eat or drink to comfort me; neither did I see any prospect before me but that of perishing with hunger or being devoured by wild beasts; and that which was particularly afflicting to me was, that I had no weapon, either to hunt and kill any creature for my sustenance, or to defend myself against any other creature that might desire to kill me for theirs. In a word, I had nothing about me but a knife, a tobacco-pipe, and a little tobacco in a box."
He later learns the skill of pottery. One of his first successful ventures was a clay, which, according to Crusoe, looked kind of weird but smoked well.
Thr movie "Castaway" with Tom Hanks was a good movie. MAybe even a great movie, but stranded, I'd take a pipe over a bloody volleyball any day!
