The Best Of Times

Amsterdam is my favorite Euro city. ..... Moi has better reasons then westerns to choose that period.

Moi

BTW the ole west produced Populism

OH YOU ARE SUCH A POMPOUS......"ONAGER"... (I think that means ass!)

So, as a kid I watched "Big Jake" and thought I would like to have lived back then, and my reasons are childish and immature huh?

Well I changed my mind anyway, so it does not matter. NOW I want to "set the way-back machine Sherman, to...." 30,000 to 50,000 BCE. That's right, I would like to go WAYYYYY back. To a time when I would easily be the smartest human being on the planet. As for my new set of reasons to want to go to that time.... My thoughts are NOT caused by something so childish and immature as some John Wayne movie. For now, I am reading a book, yes, I am actually reading again, I just finished the book "Clan of the Cave Bear," and now I am reading the sequel, "Valley of the Horses." Actually pretty good reading, although "Clan of the Cave Bear" was clearly better than it's sequel.

Anyway, I think I MIGHT like to go so far back in time, back to a time when I would be able to shock and amaze people with some of the things I know. I would be the first human being to "discover" the wheel among other things. If I could live in that time, and be accepted safely into any of the clans, then I would be like a super genius to them. I would be the "Merlin the Magician" or wizard.

50,000 years ago you did not need to be smart, just faster then the other guy, but its would not matter, the reason they don't find many bones, is because the big cats usually ate them too.
