    Ah, the joys of time travel[^]. Hopefully by the time you read this I will have entered their ranks and performed my first feat of deft historical realignment. Though come to think of it, if I had been successful then I would have already come back and adjusted this message to say I had been successful which, judging by the lack of such a message, leads me to think that I wasn't successful and probably edited myself out of the timeline.

    But if you did that, where did this message come from ?

      Do you take requests? I need you to go back to 1972 and slap me in the head? (hard), to keep me from marrying my ex! Any help would be appreciated! :) Mike

            then he needs to go to the 80's and slap me twice, one for each ex! Though he is welcome to add extra slaps for the 2nd, the first was no big deal by comparison to the 2nd!

              Amen brother! My first marriage ended and she left me everything and just walked away, my second took everything and left me nothing. Unfortunately they were one in the same woman! When I said slap me (hard) I meant 2X4 hard or better! Mikw

                The forum is equipped with a temporal voting mechanism installed using quaternion vote detection and kaon particles to direct your vote accordingly. Try it out, just as long as you do not violate Bulletin 1147 by encouraging nameless persons to be encouraged to waste their time here through the use of 5 votes.

                  And, when you are back 'then', give me a little push out into the world. I would like the happy chance of actually doing some of the fun stuff I was accused of doing by my ex... ;P

                    Business idea: I go back in time and take away everything you own, so you can find someone who loves you for what you are. If th relationship proves stable (say, ten years), you can have back what you gave.

                      Good point. I must have died in the process of time travel and not managed to edit myself out. I am doomed to repeat.

                                    Oh he11 ... just go back to 1978 and shoot me before I buy my first computer. Of course, if you do, this message will disappear and you will never see it so you can't go back and shoot me, in which case this message will still be here ... unless you go back and shoot me.
