funny,

 

mine will be, and not in a serious way,

 

- stop a young me (10) from throwing a smoke bomb onto a train with a lot of straw.............. however moving to fla (police) b/c of that for a yr and half was great and a life saving move......... ummm

 

- do not sucker punch my older brother (14 yr older)

The one and only thing i would change is smoking cigs, and i would win some serious cash from betting.

I'd go back to 1919, pick up Shoeless Joe and the other 7 and take them on a trip to 1921 or 1922.
