Re: ~if You Could Live In Another Era~
Hmmmmmmmm....
I would like to have been a schoolteacher in the late 19th century( much like Walnut Grove) until I meet that sweet "diamond in the rough"drifter passing through, who has saved his gold from the mines and was ready to settle down and start his own company. He needs and wants to learn how to read and write, so I help him and we fall in love, etc. I would also like to have been an actress in the early fifties and a star of the Actors Studio and have been "great friends" with Brando and Dean and Monroe. Respected in both New York and Hollywood for my unique talent and down-to-earth good looks and demeanor. I also would have like to have during the time of Jesus and actually hear him speak and see what he was like as a person. While he was out and about preaching and healing, wouldn't it have been great to get a smile or a friendly hug from Jesus himself? Just thinking..................

Re: ~if You Could Live In Another Era~
Alright, so it was only myth but I would have loved to have lived on Mount Olympus and watched all the goings on of the various deities. And, okay, maybe I could have joined in one or two of their activities, the less grizzly ones. And hey, I could have met Zeus, been mother to nine gifted daughters and had an unforgettable memory.

Re: ~if You Could Live In Another Era~
OH! I love magic-wand moments. the 60s.
nickel gas, a gear-heads paradise. go pic out your brand spanking new muscle car for a tenth of what the same car would cost you now. buy a bunch of stock in AT&T and IBM. get an acre of land for $400 instead of $3400."Free Love" as a wise lady told me recently, "the only thing you had to worry about when getting laid was: getting her pregnant." get a complete meal at a nice restaurant for 18 and pay $30.
