My way-back machine took me to 1920. Need advice.

1. In the Fall of 1929.....

BUY, BUY, BUY!!!

Oil stocks mostly....

[Withywindle]

2. Also, the booze business.

Risky, but trust me on this.



Look for a nerdy guy in a blue British-style police box. Maybe he can help you.

3. sorry, cant answer you for at least

75 years or so

4. Invest in a newly formed company called Radio Corporation of America (RCA)

You'll be glad you did.

[Ptah]

5. Sherman, is that you?

[BlueIris]

6. Hook up with the flappers. They're ducky.

And loose.

[Tabasco_Dave]

7. Buy a hemp farm

It was legal back then.:hippie:

[Left Brain]

8. Pick up a buck or two picking hops

Take the kids, grandma, it's a family event.

Then scurry on home and make yourself some beer.

9. Invest all you have in this company. Their products are on fire!

Luftschiffbau Zeppelin GmbH. I see great things in the future for them.

10. If you have any family in the old country

invite them for an extended visit in the US! :o

11. Locate Prescott Bush.

In 1924, his wife will give birth to a son named George, and he and his partners at Union Bank will help Hitler give birth to the Third Reich.

If you can eliminate Prescott, you will prevent all the evil spawned by both of his 1924 projects. If you choose to refuse this mission, give me your goddamn time machine, and I'll take care of it.

15. I says to one of my new friends I says:

"I've been given dis assignment, see. It's a bit, let's say, out a my realm if you know what I mean, see. But it could help stop a long line of evil spawn from mucking everything up down da line if you know what I mean..."

And he says he knows someone who knows someone named "Alphonse." After old Banjo Eyes tonight we'll be going underground to meet this Alphonse, post-haste!

12. Open a bar and put all your proceeds in the stock market

trust me, I'm never wrong.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

13. Invest in a nice pair of spats.

14. Whoo! Just spent a little time loitering around the Flatiron building so

some of the fellows I've fallen in with could show me a neat trick. Seems the geography around the building and the building itself help create wind currents that, if you're lucky, help lift up women's dresses a bit. I had just gotten a gander at some lovely ankle when a cop gave us the old 23 skidoo.

So it's off to see old Banjo Eyes (Eddie Cantor for those of you not in the know) down to the Ziegfeld.

Bye-ya, kids!
