have you ever wished you could go back to a certain time in your life and change things here and there? i have. i mean, how cool is that? to go back in time and amend history. make your current life better.

but to be realistic, i don’t think it’s gonna be possible. even if it is, it would shake up the whole time-space continuum (i’ve been using that phrase for ages without really knowing what it means). it would rip apart the fabrics of space.

well, if somebody out there managed to go back in time, there would be consequences in the form of The Butterfly Effect. have you seen the movie starring Ashton Kutcher? no? go see it.

anyway, i have loads of fragmented memories that i’d like to be modified. better study results, better choices in terms of life-changing decisions, better relationships with friends and family. all that shit…

or just to observe lives of people in the past. wouldn’t it be cool to be able to walk through london in the Victorian ages? Egypt when the pharoahs ruled? Vikings? Middle East in the dawn of Islam? Cavemen? DINOSAURS?

if time travel exists, i’d prefer a mode where you can browse the world, but not physically interact with the elements of the past. sort of a virtual tour, or the holodeck in star trek. yeah… i think that is more feasible than actual time travel, however absurd the idea is.

STOP!

or do you want to stop time? remember a tv show in the 80’s where this girl could stop time just by touching two fingers together? it’s called Out of This World.

just imagine if you could do that. well, in the show, she could cancel the effect on a person/thing by simply touching them. we’ll have to ignore that for a second, for the sake of this argument. let’s say i could stop time by doing the same thing. it would mean that i can’t move at all, because the tiny air molecules and dust particles around me would be frozen, thus engulfing my entire body with an invisible but solid blanket. if i try to move, those particles would rip my body apart and i’d be dead. and there’s no one else to start the passage of time. the world won’t end, but it gets stuck.

that’s waaay out of the box, man! what a load of crock. i better get to work!
