I'd go back to Alabama 1861 to join up with my great grandfathers to fight the Yankee and die upon the country's altar.

I'd go back to the time I posted this and convince myself not to post this response.

I'd write down the winning lottery or horses from tv go a day back bet on the winning numbers and become a millionaire easy peasy.

Brilliant.

I'd go back to when my parents were getting a divorce and change some things. Keep my sister from getting schizo and the things that happened that ripped my family apart after the divorce.

Things have smoothed over since then, but there's still scars that won't heal.

I'd go and join my great grandfather in the Xth crusade.

I should look into family history a tad bit more.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

Well you guys seem fond of joining your relatives during wartime.. I don't really like my grandfather much but I would not want to go back in time and fight alongside him in the pacific during world war 2 that's for sure,  I would probably go back in time during the 70s hippie period and experience all of those awesome societal changes that occurred then (while smoking all the dope in the world)

Go back to 1863 and tell Lee not to charge up that hill.

Sorry for double post

I would also go back to napoleonic era and shoot both Alexander I of Russia and Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden(Power mad king) so we wouldn't have lost Finland.

Pretty straightforward, just answer and that's all. I guess put reasons why you would go.

For me it would have to be Massachusetts in the American War of Independence.

i would have to agree with that one. What a time to be in

Actually, I'm gonna change my vote.

I'd go back in time and shoot Andrew Jackson, then go to the Civil War and get Nathan Bedford Forrest.

THEN, I'd go meet up with my Granduncle and drop some Fascists.
