I think I would check out the Middle Ages or go see Ancient Rome.
Where would you go?

I would go back to the early 1900's and assassinate Henry Ford so that Ford would never be created. Then I never would have been stuck with an '05 F-150 that cost me over 9g's in replacement parts.
But for a serious answer.
I go back to the following:
Stone Hange's creation
Building of the Pyramids of Giza
The fall of Cesar.
The fall of King Tutt... errr Tut....
The Jack the Ripper slayings. To find out who that crazy bastard really was.
The Middle and Dark Ages. To hang with King Arthur and the like. (Maybe swing Excalibur around for a few hours)
I'd like to go back a couple hundred million years to see the Dino's.
I'd go back to Earth's first day. lol

Pyramids being built, Easter Island, Nazca lines, burning of Rome, the Crucifixtion, Sistine Chapel being painted...
I could list 10,000 things I'd want to see and do, or know where certain things came from. I'm pretty sure if I had a time machine... this time would never see me again.

If I could go back in time, it would be to watch how this whole world/universe began.
Buttt, I have no idea how that would work.

Can I make a "road trip" of this?
Pyramids being built (ALL OF THEM, not just Egypt)
I would like to visit my ancestors, spending some time with my grandfather I never knew, as he passed when my brother and I were babies.
I would like to be present in the clubs where Miles Davis and his revolving door suite of band members changed music.
I would like to be present when the first Ford rolled off the assembly line.
I would like to be present at a speech of Marcus Mosiah Garvey.
How much of an affect to the events do I have to be subject to?
I would like to see some of the things that touched off wars/conflicts.
I would like to see Che Guevara doing his thing first hand.
If all of what I presented is not optional in this, then I will choose Rome, I am convinced that there is less disease and pestilence in that particular situation.

I go to Nazi Germany and kick Hitler's ass
I'd go to a dealership in Japan in 1992 or 1993 and grab me a nice ass Silvia, and hide. Hello 20 mile odometer coupe!
Then in 97 I'd go and grab a S14 Silvia.
Then in 99 a Spec R Silvia.
Then in 03 or whatever i'd get a Z tune

Go back and invent Myspace before Tom, Windows before Bill Gates, or just go to about a month before launch and sell a ps3 for $10000.
Or go back and actually not be lazy enough to learn piano, drums, guitar.
Or just hang out with some neanderthals.
Or Rome and try to be a god.

SPARTAAAA!
Haha.
Too many interesting times and places to visit, I probably wouldn't even be able to do it all in my lifetime. First I'd probably visit all the mysteries of time, such as the Stonehenge, Maccu Picchu, the seven wonders of the ancient world, and etc.
Go back to 1986.
Take out a loan for $300,000
Then buy as much stock in MSFT.
Sell in 1999.
Live like a king.

I would go back to where there was the first woman, then I would have as many offspring as possible, then everyone would be descendants of me!!
No wait!
Now that I think about it, maybe not a good idea, cause then the world would be filled with the coolest most beautyfull people in the whole universe....LOL

i'd buy a brick of gold, go back to about 1800, sell it, and put the cash in the bank.
then i'd go to 1980, take the money out, and put all my money in microsoft stock.
then i'd go to 1999, sell all the microsoft stock, and put it all in Apple.
then i'd come back to present, sell that shit, and be the richest dude you know.

so... lets say hypothetically, i go back in time and have sex with myself. would that make me gay? i mean, its me, so i dont think so, its like whackin off... kinda.
lol jk. i'd totally make sure i didnt crash, and spend all my sr20 fund on a new front end.

thats easy, go back and buy and store a bunch of old ferrari's/rolls/bentlys. then sell them now. My dad has a big collection of old cars, and they sell for stupid amounts. Plus, we can drive them and shit and they are still worth monies.
also, i would go back to 6 years ago when i started college, and tell myself to not fuck around and study more. But then i wouldve never met my fiance, so maybe that isnt a good idea. Either way, something really cool involving college and less homework.

Ahh I assumed this was the kind of going back in time where you're invisible and cannot change the present.

Thats kinda hard to think of I dont really know it would be spirt of the moment. Like will it be only one time travel? I would prolly highjack the time machine wearing a turban and finger nail clippers. Then procede to following Hillary slapping her everyday in her child hood. Next would be go to the Greace movie set and take John Travolta out like Bruce Lee.
Man I need a time machine..:-/

Lolz, then I would just look like a jackass. But if I were born with the name :naughty: Then I "technically" couldn't help it, and would come up with the name Megatron. Awesomeness.

I would first...go back about 2 years ago...and never get engaged to my crazy ex Fiance..
other than that...probably go to 1989 when my folks moved us back to the states from Germany and kick my dad in the head for selling the E30 euro spec M3 we had...
And Further back...
I would like to Meet Ole Jesus, shoot the shit, meet Mary Magdalen. Take a peak at the United States before it became what it is today...1500-1700ish any time in between. Check out the palaces of the Great Russian CZARS and everything inbetween there and England...I would spend so much time going back in time...that I would be dead and old before I got to see everything I would want to see..:(
