I'd sell it for 400 million dollars.

I think you'd be getting ripped off.  You gotta go for the jugular, hun!

@The Empire^

i guess that what the famous song artists think depend upon the knickers (size, state, colour, kinkiness etc) and on the person who threw thm if they are visible - unfortunately i dn't know either Solnath or Allama well enough to comment on their underware or shapely, feminine bodies (physique)

hmmm my imagination is working over time - best if i stop typing

Careful, orsis; wouldn't want your head to explode, now would we?

I think I'd also use a time machine to go back to the era of our cave-dwelling ancestors.  I'd bring a blowtorch and a megaphone to impress them and become their queen; "not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the dawn... All will love me and despair!"  Caveman minions, hehe!

The only problem would be that they wouldn't get my LotR references. ::)

I would go back to meet up with Caesar before he became dictator and present him with about a dozen Leo 2A6s  and a generous compliment of fuel and ammo for them and become the first technical officer and tank-general ever :P

I'd love to be able to send my current consciousness into my child form as a type of time travel. I'd do things a little different and really enjoy freaking people out when the kid they were talking to started talking back like an adult... just seems like it'd be a lot of fun

If been thinking 'bout the same thing, but if I could do that, I'd just use it on trifles, nothing really important. Re-experience certain moments so many times that they become mundane while they used to be special. 'tis a dangerous path.

If nothing is certain then all paths hold danger. Safety is an illusion at best, a barrier to keep the mind from considering all the possibilities and the risks they hold.

Without free will all philosophy becomes a joke. I question the sick sense of humor of an all controlling deity that would deem those it controls to have such a notion of free will if they are to be denied it.

Ultimately though seeing as the fractal torus of reality progressing infinitely into, out of and parallel to itself occurs on levels far larger, far smaller and blocked by that which we can see to leave any absolute certainty as to the "truth" of the matter. So if the choice be mine I choose to believe in free will even though the choice is made entirely on a leap of faith.

In the presence of an all-powerful being, free will is naught but lies. Without such, well, free will is naught but probability manipulation.
