OK, I wanna "troll" here! So... you have a chance to "time travel" for 1 week. Where would you go? What would you want to see? Experience? (You'll get another week next year so its not one of those "all or nothing" things).

The Renaissance period in Florence would be very interesting, but maybe less so for women. The same could be said for a lot of times and places. So if we have to go back with our own gender, that makes the choice tougher. It would be enjoyable to be in Paris in the 1920s, and gender issues and pestilent disease would be less of a concern.

Robespierre

Jerusalem. Passover, <i>A.D.</i> 33.

Robespierre

Oops. Europe.

Okay. Hastings, 1066.

bobthenavigator

Actually, I think I have done that, but in a previous life. I think I was a Captain in the private guard for Lorenzo di Medici circa 1500.

WillTravel

Hmm, Bob. The thing is when someone says something like that nowadays, I never know if they are serious or kidding.

Its all good - I think I was Diane dePortiers...

Iregeo

Mine's kinda embarrassing, but here goes... I'd like to be an 11th or 12th century Venetian courtesan, as in the movie &quot;Dangerous Beauty&quot;. I'm blushing just typing it...

Robespierre

Can I change mine?

Venice, 11th or 12th Century.

I would go to approx 15,000,000,000 to watch the beginning of the universe.

Paris, early fall, 1870. The light was exceptionally good that year for my paintings.

Bird

I would go back to Amsterdam five years ago to see if my spouse was having an affair.

8 November 1923, Munich. To do you-know-what to you-know-who.

Robespierre

ira,

did that take place in Europe? Are you French?

maitaitom

Definitely the Renaissance Period in Florence. Of course, if that was boring, I'd try to hook up with Iregeo in 11th or 12th century Venice. I don't think my wife would miss me for a week. Well.....

amyb

I've always wanted to hang out with Michelangelo while he painted the Sistine Chapel. Based on all I've read about him, he sounds like someone I'd like to meet. This would be a good chance to do so!

SeaUrchin

Maitai, your wife would be able to pick her own week too you know!! Where do you think she would go?


I think I would ride around with Napoleon or Hanibal or go hang out with Jesus.

ira

Hi robes,

I meant &quot;go back&quot;.

Gardyloo,

Why not go back to 1889 and drown the SOB?

RufusTFirefly

When was Anna Kournakova last at Wimbledon?

crefloors

Lets see, when did they come up with flush toilets, tooth brushes, and deoderant? That's as far back as I would go... I know, I'm just not romantic at all..oh yea..and Depends..just kidding.
