Where would you go if you had a time machine?

Its that simple really.

Any time.
Any place.

If you could to any point in history and see anything you want.
Where would you go?
What would you do?

I'd go back 5 years and play the largest lottery, win and bet on the World Series. Then I would invest heavily into the guy who built the time machine. Then I would go back to Alexandria before the library was burned and copy everything down. I would then go to the furthest point in the future before the planet's destruction to see how we have evolved.

go back and shoot the person who discoverd america before he could discover america


on a serious note i would go back in time and buy into the most least valuble asset in that era that is the most valuble asset this day and age

Thats what I'd do but you'd have to go back 1 week before the last winner otherwise you'd have to split the prize money with the guy that won the largest.
That would be enough for me!

Thats a tough one. But here are my choices.

1.) I'd go back to when I was 5 years old. No worries, no responsibilities... no problem. I wouldn't care if I had won the lottery.

2.) I'd go back to when "Man" was still a monkey (likely story) so that I could throw my poo at certain political leaders and get away with it. I would get away with it, because it would be normal for us to throw our poo.

I'd go to ancient Egypt and Greece, and WWII, and England and France in the 18th and 19th century. And.... a lot of other places. how about...to before 911 and warn someone?

and I'd go and see if Jesus existed. and say hi to the man...and tell him that humans are, unfortunately, not better now than they were then....if not worse.

on the other hand...maybe it'd just be better to stay at home....

the time: a long time ago

The place: A galaxy far, far away

Not interested in going forward...I want to go backward and try to find all the answers to the things we discuss here

I'd like to go right back to the Big Bang and see how it all started.
Thats assuming of course that it started with a big bang.

I'd go back to the moment I decided to decide where or when to go and see if I keep making the same decision.

I'd be hesitant to change anything really...

As messed up as some stuff in history and present times is, mabey it was for the best? Somehow that's a possiblity in my mind, I dunno really.

I would wait wait until we could cure almost all disease, then go back to when I was 10 and cure my friend that unfortunately passed away.

I'd go back to 1950 and ask my fiancees grandmother out on a date.

Then I would return to 2006 and say Hi.

I reckon she'd flip out, not being able to tell anybody that she went out with me 56 years ago. I might even wear the same clothes?
