Speaking of being able to fly to the moon, did anyone see the bit on Conan last night about Trump's Moon resort? lol

So if we do the language thing, does it cover intent? I mean, my wife says shit all the time and I perfectly understand the words but still fuck it all up. I want a way to fix THAT.

Time travel. Life without modern day conveniences would suck but it would be a great adventure as long as I can pick the period of time. It was hard to pick between that or exploring the ocean floor. Where would all the water go though? :P

Take all the money I have and go back to the time when major portions of LA and the Santa Monica Mountains were selling for $0.25 an acre.

We gotta go back 300+ years though. Not much out here that I'd want to see/experience.

I picked the bridges.

Being able to get in your car and go absolutely anywhere on this planet would rock.

If my time machine won't bring me back, I'll just have to build a new one out of a steam engine like Back to the Future 3. Then enjoy my billions of dollars in 2009.

Heh heh, this sounds like a song cue to me....

Fly me to the moon, and let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me

Fill my heart with song, and let me sing forevermore
You are all I long for, all I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

I'd go back to feudal Japan and become a Samurai. I figure if we have figured out time travel, I'll be able to pass as a Japanese person.
