I doubt anyone from the past would believe you if you said you were from the future, so trying to convince famous people to do stuff would be difficult.

OTOH, it might be easier to score with Norma Jean than Marilyn.

So she should have taken them elsewhere with her loaded ass.

About Time was a great movie about this

I don't know that it was a great movie about time travel (as that was pretty much all nonsensical) but I agree it was a great movie that had time travel in it.

I'd stop myself from telling DGuller any secrets.  :(

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Just think what you could accomplish if you put your energies towards realistic schemes.

I don't sit around and actively think about it-- just one of those weird things that pops into my head fairly frequently.

On second thought I'd go to the future and become King of the Morlocks.

Eloi, it's what's for dinner.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar
