I would like to go back to the cretaceous period to see the dinosaurs. I would kidnap a little hypsilophodon and keep him as a pet, then watch paradox unfold. :D

I'd like to be a Maenad 8O :)

Maenads were female worshippers of Dionysus, the Greek god of mystery, wine and intoxication, and the Roman god Bacchus. The word literally translates as "raving ones". They were known as wild, insane women who could not be reasoned with

:lol:


Maenads-- wild women followers of the cult of Dionysus-- are holding one of their intoxicated, wild celebrations. They notice Orpheus and invite him to join in their dance, but his grief is all consuming, and he doesn’t notice them. Enraged, they descend on him like the Furies. They dismember and behead him, throwing his parts into the river. The last image of Orpheus is his severed head, floating in the river, still crying the name of his beloved Eurydice.

Doesn't do to p*ss them off then :P :lol:


I wanna be Orpheus. It sounds like a glorious way to go.

Around Egypt before the ice age 12,000 years ago approx. I have my reasons for that time and place, mainly to investigate things in that time period.

Today, because we know more about Apserger's Syndrome more now then at any other time. Also, I don't know what I would do without all these modern technology and conveniences.

I've always thought it would be fun to be in California, in a round 1890, before it got to screwed up by huge numbers of people.
Second choice would be Australia in 1800 to see all the marsupial critters in their natural settings, before they became toast
