  It's the year 2011 and there is now a working time machine.  The catch is it's very expensive and you become a year younger for every year you go back.
  
  The lottery offers to send you back to when you were 16 with a hundred grand in old bills in lieu of the jackpot.   Would you take that deal?

  If you went back not knowing what you know, they'd be the problem of your trying to go home and meeting yourself and not knowing what's going on.
  
  You can't go home, more like witness protection.

  It depends. Will I be dumb as a door nail again, or retain what I've learned?

  What's the use of been a dumb 16 year old!

  With my Jackpot money,  I can look like 16!

  forget what "they" say about you. What you say about you?...

  Now, does it count??

  I would go back and be 16 again with my $100,000. I loved baseball. I would stay in Baseball and make my millions. I would retire at 40 and move to Northern Michigan, somewhere around Harrietta, open my own business and enjoy everything to the fullest. No wants or needs, just the Simple Life. Bass Fishing, Trout fishing, Hunting all the time.

  Tiggs, The whole point is that I would have the best of both worlds!!  The money and the looks of a 16 year old  with good surgery! and the feel of a 16 year old with a great holistic program! Which would not be hard since I am not ancient to start with!!! LoL like some one I know!!! LoLo  sorry Tiggs could not resist!!
