I think that might be okay....Unless you have a chance to get happy with a young Joan Collins!
I don't suppose Joan Collins having had one more lover would make much of a ripple in the time line....
Re: If You Could Go Back To Any Time In History...
For me I would like to go back to the day before my mother died so I could see her as i never got a chance to say goodbye.
I expect to go straight to hell...........at least I won't have to spend time making new friends.
Re: If You Could Go Back To Any Time In History...
Not to mention indoor plumbing...But I do like electricity, antibiotics, and cars.
Yes, I'd love to go back to the time of The Resurrection, to verify that it took place, but I'd have no desire to hang around in 30 AD, and try to live there.... (for one thing, everybody would be speaking Aramaic, Latin, Hebrew or Greek...I know a few words of Yiddish, but I doubt that would get me by...)
Also, I'd just as soon not live in a place where a scratched misquote bite can result in death by infection, and a man my age is considered an "Ancient and Wizened One"...
Oh, and did I mention the lack of indoor plumbing?...

From now on, I will be especially careful when quoting anyone.
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

All right, you got me there...

Reason is valuable only when it performs against the wordless physical background of the universe.

Plus I don't consider it a typo so much as a parapraxis.
Re: If You Could Go Back To Any Time In History...
A minor error, slip of the tongue....a parapraxis
That's exactly what it was...
From the Paraxal period in history....Right before the Cambrian Explosion...

Admit that when anyone misquotes you there is an urge to bite them. Admit it.
Re: If You Could Go Back To Any Time In History...
Yes, sadly it's true...Admit that when anyone misquotes you there is an urge to bite them. Admit it.
When someone misquotes me, I don't just want to bite them...
I want to bite them in half...
And spit out the naughty bits...
But I digress...

Why would I confine my interests or ambitions to merely those which uninteresting people can conceive of?
Time is a continuum which extends into two directions. Forward is a lot more interesting than back. It is the undiscovered country.

Poor old retard, dumb as fuck and too cowardly to admit a mistake.

You are a coward, with a very shallow grasp of English, and poor self esteem.
