If you could go back to a specific time in the past, when would it be

[Old Troop]

and why?

[femmocrat]

1. The 1960s.

At the time I was too young to understand the significance of the decade and its events. I would like to be able to understand them as they happen.

Plus I would love to see the all of the great music performers in concert!

2. The 20's. The styles were cool and most people were happy and carefree.

[Skittles]

3. anytime before Fox News, Walmart, and Twitter

5. Definitely the 60's. I was very young (born in '57) but had a brother

who was 10 y.o. and a sister who was 8 y.o. and they were both hippies. I remember listening to the Stone's Beggers Banquet when I was just a kid and of course The Beatles were always on. I would've LOVED to have been a teenager during that decade.

4. Probably the 60s as well

I was alive then, but too young to understand the significance of the time.

6. the 1960's

The decade had so much going on, I was a small child and didn't appreciate how history-making this decade was.

7. This is a tough choice.

The 60's would be cool, but the early 1973-1978 would be great also.

8. 1976....

my mother was still alive and healthy...

[many a good man]

9. 1770's

I'd own a big ass hemp farm. My indentured servants would be working all day separating the buds from the stems and seeds and throwing the buds in the refuse. Then at the end of the day we'd smoke up all the buds together and plot a revolution. It'd be real cool, man! Freedom!

10. early 80's would be good for me. a couple choices i would like to rethink. but then,

if i were to do hat, i wouldnt be here and now having had the experiences i have had that make the hear and now as good as they are.

nope. no going back. though i made some poor choices, i learned and made other better choices giving me what i have.

11. April 30, 1976

I would put my horse in the barn at night, in the stall next to my dad's mare and her baby filly. Then he would not get out of the pasture out of loneliness and boredom and get killed in the road by a car speeding in the dark.

I couldn't do anything about my mother's death from cancer the year before but I could save my horse. And I think that would have made a big difference in the direction my life took because I just shut down after that.

12. Oh, skygazer

I am so sorry that happened. I can imagine what a heart breaker that was. :cry: :hug:
