If I could go back in time I would revisit a certain hot latina on a certain Saturday night, not buy gold or silver.

If I could go back in time I'd break the writing hand of the guy who made up the Northern Colorado Jack Slade story. Read that in a book when I was 9 or 10 and it got me hooked on treasure hunting.

Later I came to find out it was totally FAKE. Dreams crushed.

This is a funny post...Because My hunting buddy and I talk about this, about everytime we are hunting..lol..>We always talk about how nice it would be to have the detectors we have now in the 20's or 30's...and how we could buy Silver Certificates off Ebay and change them in for Gold coins......Guess I will keep dreaming

I am not your hunting buddy but I have thought/drempt the same thing. You would have to bring money that was older than what you are buying. I would bring trade items to sell to the California gold miners. You know, food, knives, old Playboy's, cheap whiskey.

Kill teenage Hitler (I couldn't kill a baby - even the devil baby hitler)
Stack 20-30's era silver and gold
Fast forward to 2011, sell it all in the high months.

Remain in 2011 and live life from their to the present playing every single lottery game I could find each week with the winning numbers tatooed up and down my forearms and on my back (i'm assuming Terminator style time travel where I have to arrive naked each time)

When I get back to 2012 build a massive missile to launch into outer space which will destroy an attacking alien fleet (made up by some baboon of course but carried out by me and a total hoax except the missle part) take credit for saving the planet and adverting the true disaster that the Mayans invisioned for 2012.

January 1, 2013 I would then select an area of the world to start construct my City of Infinity (somewhere with real geo-thermal energy) which would finish being constructed by the Chinese in 2018. The entire City would be encased in a dome layered in solar panels to reflect/absorbed the sun and keep the occupants cool plus power the city. this of course would anger Al Gore because we wouldn't have to listen to him about Global warming anymore... Everything would have diamonds sprinkled in and they would be virtuoully worthless because there are so many. Crime would be non existant due to fear of the 2 strike vapor laws which state: strike 2 is punishable via vaporization.

But then I snap back to reality and I am sitting on my couch of my day off and I realize I am thirsty so I better head to the gas station and spend my last 1.47 on a fountain drink...

Yeah, I think we've all had this dream at least once in our lives. Me? I'd pick up about a couple dozen Colt SAA revolvers with sequential serial numbers. There are quite a few firearms out there that have appreciated way more than gold or silver over the years. I'm sure the same could be said for artwork or any of the really high dollar collectibles. Still, if I had known back in 2004 what I know now I could be retired. Thanks for the memories!
