If the year was 1500 AC and seeing as how computers weren't around what do you think you would be doing ?
whackin' it
pounding it :), i dunno, something fun, taking girls to behind those hay things.
I'd be hunting something killing it and then eating it and do it again the next day
:D
if the year was 1500 AC I'd say my volts were set to high on my time machine. :D which meant all my amps leaked out of my flux capacitor because of it.. if I were Michael J. Fox.. I'd be running around yelling "DOC.. where are you ?"
When did A.C. come about, does that mean after computers? In that case I don't think we are there yet. Do you mean Air Conditioning? Do fans count then, I guess we could almost be there then. If you mean 1500 AD, I would be fukin' around with syphlitic hookers and trying to get them on a boat with me to go to the New World, heh heh.
I think I would be a pirate.
Arghhhhhh
A pirates life for me.
cheyenne.. most of the "good" pirates were around more than one hundred years later.
here you go... which would you be.. ?

I would definitely spend my time sleeping and trying to perfect the first chair designed for tilting.
changed my mind, i'd be a pirate with cheyenne. arghhhhhhh
call me Captain Error
I would take a light bulb back in time with me and say I invented it.
Then I'd start playing around with fire and all the people would think I am a higher being.
Then I'd invent a refridgerator, charge it for 2,000,000 each and become filthy rich.
If your rich in 1500, who the heck would care about year 2004 :rolleyes:
If computers weren't around, I'd invent them.
Who said I wanted to be a "good" pirate sumdumguy??
hehehe
I'd be Blackbeard.
I would be the most feared pirate on the seas traveling along with my trusty first mate Memory.
ARggghhhhhhh
Blackbeardddd, it's Captain Error not memory. goddamitQuote:

You'd be beaten down by the police the minute you set foot on land.Quote:

we're smarter then you think, Blackbeard, we'll dress up as normal folks. and you may have to shave, im sorry you had to hear that.
I'd be hunting down a tobacoo plant and beating some wood pulp into very thin paper :)
gotta look after what important
v_Ln
You wouldnt have to do that if you were already rich.. :rolleyes:Quote:

OK.........you asked for it:
I would be wearing nappies(diapers) and pantihose.............the upside being that I would be carrying a couple of pistols and a rapier (57?) to deal with anyone who took the piss :p
I guess I would have to be a "big nob" so at least I could walk round in a suit of armour and look respectable?
Nah.....I just checked one of the tins and it says that Guinness wasn't invented until 1759
Catch you 260 years later guys
:drink:
I'd be a viking - I've always fancied going out on one of those long-boat missions...
Still my sense of history is crap, I've no idea if the Vikings were doing their burn/plunder/rape thing then
Steve
Steve,
Are you paying attention?......here is your history lesson:
The Vikings, being well pissed off (if not up) with lager, set sail to find proper beer. The looting wimmin & cattle scam was just a lie to trick their wives?
They came and settled in York (my hometown) and were well happy with John & Sam Smith's ... but all was not well in the former Roman fortress...they had heard a rumour of greater things abroad?
So they went and settled in Dublin and Limerick, but the Irish, being a tribe of great guile, waited a FULL (Irish joke there?) 700 years before inventing Guinness.
The Vikings were frustrated, and went home...........only to return in the spring of 1066 (under the leadership of a known lager lout called Harald Hadrada, King of Norway and Leeds United Manager) to check out the beer..........they sailed up the River Ouse and met Harold Godwinson at the battle of Stamford Bridge......they came third in a game for two.
In the meantime Guillaume le Batarde and his Norman henchmen were preparing to enter the brewery stakes and came to Hastings. Unfortunately, they were not given any southern beer, or they would certainly have got back on their ferries and resorted to their native cider and calvados chasers :(
So William the Conqueror became King of England (I use his English name now) and in 1172 his Norman descendants invaded Ireland...and stayed there for some time.
Despite their renowned guile, patience, and cunning, the Irish could only wait so long.......in 1759 Guinness was invented.
That would be about in the reign of GeorgeII or III?
Sorry to our international friends for the very "English" theme here :D
Cheers
If it were 1500, I'd either be living in a teepee in the swamp here in Florida, being a good little Indian (seminole) wife, or living on a farm in Mexico being a good little farmers wife :D Seriously...that's where I came from on both sides of my family, so I'd be doing one or the other.
Bugger, that means I can't be a Viking, doesn't it!Quote:

Right, if I can't be a Viking I wanna be Court Jester!

ARRRRRRghhhhhhhhh
I'll never shave my beard memory. I oughta have you walk the plank for saying that.
hehehe
cheyenne let's go sail to an island,pick some girls up on the way, we'll steal some marijuana, and alcohol and get wasted. No water allowed. :)
Hey that sounds like a plan to me :D
btw: I'v changed my name to Capt. Jack Sparror
Argggghhh
1500's hmmm....I would definately still be "hittin it" with the ladies. Um....I am not sure what else I would want to do....Oh wait, I would wanna kill something I don't really care who or what but something that isn't an animal!!!!!
Other than that I guess I would be freezing my ass off because it always seems colder back than....!

I am Robin Hood. The king of thieves. i and my merry men are planning to plunder from the rich and giving it to the Poor ( well mostly) :D
Drunk on olden days beer.
Technically AD is wrong now too. It is now commonly referred to as BCE and CE, which stands for Before Common Era, and Common Era. AD stands for Anno Domini, which is latin for The Year of our Lord.
At any rate, 1500 or so, I might be embroiled in one of the large wars that took place all over the world.
I would personally be studying the graphical pictures left from different tribes, and Egyptians. Ultimately granting me to heal with my heads.
The question is though...would you be wearing tights?Quote:

(If you've never seen the movie Robin Hood: Men in Tights, this isn't going to be funny, nor even make sense, so my apologies if that is the case)
Debs,
I have already laid claim to the pantihose.............the nappies/diapers came in somewhat after Robin Hood's time? 1400's?
Without looking it up Kings Richard and John were around in the 1100's and that is Robin Hood's era.....first/second crusades?
And don't forget the codpiece......an essential bit of male overwear :D
I think I shall leave before I get corrupted?
Cheers :D
