If you could go back to any period (back) in time, where would you go?

I would go back and actually go through with breaking up with my ex the first time I tried to, instead of hanging around for 2.5 miserable years.
That, and I would have bought Google when they went public (since it was around the same time and I can only go back once).

I'd go back to a few years after the last guy got rid of the Fed Reserve, take over and make laws to make sure no private company such as the Fed Reserve could implace some fake paper money called the Fed Note that we use today.

If I were to go that far back, I'd take the first step by actually saying "hi" to some gals, personally. I had random spurts of talking out loud, but I was quiet most of the time. It was funny going to my 10-year reunion a few months ago. Most were surprised at how social I was as a grown up (especially after a few drinks).

Would go back about to ~2002 and have worked even harder on my music career, probably gotten my old guitarist to go to rehab when he was still reasonable.
circa 1995 I would have totally done this one chick. She was so goddamn hot (34 / 19 / 36D 5'9) and I had an offer for a sport-screw. At the time I didn't do it because we were friends and I was really wanting her more as a g/f if we were going to go that way. 6 months later she decided she was too cool for me and my group of friends. Shoulda done it
Cie La Vie
2005 I would have not bought my condo and waited 6 months for the market to go down

as for me. I think it would be cool to go back to the 40's or 50's. World War 2. Meet my grandfather. Be a part of the birth of hot rodding and the greatest generation. Etc. Plus I could put a bunch of hot rods in a concrete warehouse, weld up the doors and leave the property in the name of my best friends. Of course I wouldn't be around in 2009 so they'd be like... who the **** is Ray?
Plus... a dude with my build... I would have made it in the NFL easy.. haaa.
My gramps played. Hell he played in the hawaii bowl with fresno state back in the 30's. haaaaa. QB son..
But if we only get 10 days... that's hard as hell.
Meeting my gramps, meeting jesus, saving my mom's life. All of which are things I'd love to get to do. But I think all of them would completely alter my current life and I don't think that's always the right way to do things.
So I'd say I'd go back to the 50's. Do the warehouse thing and leave it in my name. Buy some stocks. Make a baby. Then I could meet that baby and he'd be as old as my folks and probably hate me for making him a basturd. Hmmmmm.

I`ll go back at least half a decade and take all knowledge that I have now and apply it. Automobiles, music (so that everyone thinks that I wrote the lyrics), and countless other things that would make Donald Trump go bankrupt. (evil laugh)
