Your Top Time Machine Destination?

[Mr.Coffee]

on a related noted, this thread reminds me of this comic!

First i'd go back and visit old family members, then I would go back to June 6th, 1944, Normandy beach. Nice high up specter view with bullets wizzing by and through me so I could see the majority of the invasion beaches. That would be un real.

After that I would go visit Peter the Great and check out Russia. Then fast forward a few years to check out Frederick the Greats military reforms and his unbeaten army.

Then it would be off to France, April 2nd 1917, to watch the opening assault of the Battle of Arras, otherwise known as Vimy ridge.

And I could go on forever... heh..

Go into the future(if the machine had enough gas) to see the Leafs
win their next cup.
I just am curious what the universe will look like then.

Props for the PBF, Mr. C. Reminds me I haven't checked that one in a couple of weeks.

I'm one of the ones that would rather go to the future, I think. The past is cool, and all, but I want to travel through space and stand on other planets and such.

Plus the whole extraterrestrial life thing. That's a doozy. Forget jesus.

Great thread.

Lots of great ideas here are a few more from me

1886 to hang out in the shop when Daimler and Benz were putting together the first internal combustion engine car.

Landing on the beach with my grandfather.

Early 50's in at my Great Grand Fathers Florida winter home. So when his friend who was one of the main guys at Coke was looking for investors and offered him 25% of the company I could tell him to write the check.

I'd like to call it the Captain Crunch super punch out through time tour.

My first stop would be the dinosaur days, where I'd shoot and eat a T-Rex.

Then I'd charge up the phone booth and fast forward to the day before fire was invented with a lighter, can you say copy right so everytime a fire is lit I get paid.

Then we start the punching. I'd go to the 1400's Spain to punch out the monk who started the inquisition, I know his name, but the spelling eludes me right now.

Then I'd beam back in time and accompany Nero's violin solo while Rom burned with a base guitar.

I'd move forward to the time of King John who split england and tried to sell it to the france and give him the mightiest of knuckle sandwiches.

Then I'd beam into Whitechapel and see if I could find Jack the Ripper (I'd probably take the CSI Las Vegas home game with optional DNA testing to solve the crime)

Then its off to the early 19th century where I'd save the Archduke Ferdinand preventing world war 1 and II. Then I'd punch him in the face.

I'd go and get drunk with John A Macdonald.

Its off to Austria in 1932 where I'd punch out Hitler, then its over to Russia where I'd beat the crap out of Stalin, then I'd take a train over to Japan and put out the sun god in a most violent fashion

After collecting my royalties for inventing fire, I'd put out the first all nude gentleman's magazine a week before playboy debuts, thus condemming Hef to a life as a car sales man, and me to the Captain's mansion filled with hot playmates.

I'd zoom into California and pop Charles Mansio in the mush thus breaking his influence over his followers.

I'd whip over the grassy knoll on the day that Kennedy was shot, and make sure I had my picture taken looking all mysterious, then I'd vanish.

I'd pop into Liverpool england with 5 of my friends and the beatles song book so that I could form the Beatles before the beatles and become a gargantuan millionaire with a band named "Don't listen to the beatles because they stole our music", I'd probably save John Lennon's life because he'd never become famous.

I'd arrive at the watergate hotel 5 minutes before the breakin and expose the watergate scandal. Woodward would become a obituary writer for the Bloom County Picayune, Bernstein would be the gossip columinst for the New York Times.

I think thats it for now, even though there's a lot more history to be skewed to my advantage.

ha ha awesome post CaptainCrunch!

GOLD.
