Time Travel Would Be So Sweet

  Wouldn't it be so great to go back in time to wherever and whenever you wanted? What time period would you be most anxious to visit? There would be so much to see and learn it would be nearly impossible to choose where to go first. I would love to see Paris in the 1920s or Anytown, USA in the late 1960s and experience the history and life of those times. I would kill to see the Beatles or Pink Floyd or the Doors perform live. I cannot imagine how incredible it would be to witness the construction of Stonehenge or Machu Piccho and finally know how those things came to be. Just imagine! You say, "I wanna go back to the beginning" and BOOM...you're hanging out with Jesus. You could even go shoot Hitler. Of course there is the theory of the Butterfly Effect, where you shoot Hitler and somehow down the road America explodes. It would definitely be more of an observed experience. You couldn't really do a whole lot without possibly changing the outcome of the world, which would suck, but the things you could witness! I wonder if time travel is actually somehow scientifically possible and we just haven't harnessed it. Maybe some day 5000 years from now they'll be looking back at the dark ages of the year 2014 before time travel existed. It's hard to believe technology can take over anymore than it already has. We would be robots. We're close enough already. Perhaps it's best that we not even attempt to figure out how to travel through time, as our world would benefit from a little bit less knowledge and technology. Of course that doesn't mean that I can't still dream about it!
