If I told you Once

There are lots of things that I can not figure out. Some things really hurt the head to try to think about but I can think about most anything that anyone can suggest. There are a few things that I can not think about. One of those things is what geniuses who lived three thousand years ago daydreamed about. It seems funny how often the most profound concept is the most simple and that it takes the smartest person to think it up. The Bible says that there is nothing new under the sun. Well if that is true then when Did the first person daydream about time travel? If This Then That. If That Then Wait, it IS possible ! Has someone in the past thought of something that we have not?

Peoples imaginations are magnificent, if unregulated and unruly and undisciplined. I think that the ancient adage from the dawn of the computer age is still quite true, “it takes a person to screw up, it takes a computer to reallllly screw up !” We had lots of imagination on our own but now with the computer it is out of this world. Just think, using a computer to smash two galaxies into each other and watch the results ! Just think, we can now “create” a worm hole and watch what happens when a space ship tries to go through it. Actually I am not aware of a computer writing a best seller on the topic of time travel yet, but people have. We still have an edge on the ol’ box yet. Actually there still is not yet – and I maintain never will be – a computer that can pick a random number either.

So is time travel possible. Yes. We are always traveling forward through it. But there I go, how do I know that there is such a thing. What I would like to have is several sets of photos. One set of my home, where I grew up, taken every five hundred years for the past six thousand years. One of the city of Jerusalem, from the Mt of Olives, taken every five hundred years for the past six thousand years. What could I learn from those twelve photos?
