    I'd probably go back only a couple of years and give myself a few winning lottery numbers, or go back just far enough to invest everything I have in Microsoft stock or something like that. Either way you see the theme here being money.

    I'd go back to the time when man hunted with spears. Why on earth do I want that? Personally, I think that once man learned literature, he became less animal like. I'm big into animal rights. I would like to see a time when man had predators and was more active in the food chain, doing things other than cutting down millions of acres of rain forest every year or changing the temperatue of the earth something like 1 degree every ten years. A time will come when we destroy the entire ecosystem, all because of literature, which lead to technology. HAHA, 4 years in college and what did I learn - we should have less knowledge, hahaha.

    I'd go back to the western days. All you would do is ride around on your horse and drink. Then go find some women to spend the night with and if you had a problem with somebody you could just shoot them. ie, Unforgive,Tombstone, Hang em High, Outlaw Josse Wales.... You get the picture

    I LOVE big, dirty, rough cowboys! Although, I don't particulary like the clothing of women back in those days...

    Definitely the ole Western Days!!

    Man, life couldn't get any better back then could it!!! Riding, drinking, and fucking. Wow, every man's dream. And women didn't even have a say back then did they...

    Personally, i'd love to see how the dinasours lived, it would be really cool to watch two dinasours duke it out for some fresh meat! But of course, going back and investing in companies like Microsoft is something I think everyone would do

    well after I made myself wealthy I would like to go back in time and see Jesus. See what he looked like, hear him speak, and just to make sure he really existed. Blind faith is kina hard sometimes.

    Oh the dinosaur thing would be good to.

    But they didn't have juice back then!

    How could any of us live without juice!!!

    I think actually everone would probably travel back to the 1970's when juice was so easy to get (well at least that's what i've been told). And you would stock up on the shit, and come back to the future!

    I'm glad so many of you like the ol' west. Money wasn't really important back then. I've never seen a guy pay for a drink or a woman. And if I wanted money I'd just go knock off a bank or capture a wanted man.

    Just give me a horse, bottle of whiskey (the good shit), a hat, and a gun. That's the life for me.

    I have always fancied the Wild West just appeals to me for some reason.

    Money well whilst I was there I would have to have made sure I was loaded when i came back.

    A good deed like stopping WW1&WW2 Vietnam and promoting world peace.

    Unfortunately no single person would ever have the ability to prevent WW1 or WW2. As bad as those 2 events were, they helped shape the world we live in. I wouldn't change much history unless I lived and understood the events going on at that time. How do we know what was best at the time. Most of our ideas have been influenced through the opinions of teachers and biased media. If you want to change the past, you must live in it to understand it first.

    Hitler was a piece of shit!

    realistically speaking, i'd be too afraid to go back in time and mess something up (if that's even possible... im a little shady on my meta-physics and space-time theory.) and of course if it was possible I would try to prevent major catastrophies of course.

    Aside from that, I would go back to Jesus' time, and prolly go back to when i was 14 and tell my self how to train and eat ...

    Gosh, there would be sooo many things to see and do, I wouldn't mind going back to the time of dinosaurs just to see them, and maybe going back to the 1800s and do some exploring and maybe some tiger hunting in Asia (don't flame me, I'm not a ruthless killer, I just love hunting and back then there were lots of tiger problems in some places )

    It'll be nice to go back to 1938 and pick up the first issue of Action Comics with Superman in it.

    Killing off Hitler before he was ever born would not really be killing him since he would have never been born.I know it's confusing isn't it.

    I'd go back to the mid-1950s and buy up a lot of Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster guitars, stuff 'em in a new '55 Chevy Nomad, then bring it all back to the present.

    Yeah your right....the only ones I know that use Aramaic these days are those in the Antiochian Branch of The Eastern Orthodox Church.
