First of all, let me start by saying I'm a huge fan of both movies. What's not to like about cyborgs, time travel, and 80's fashion? No doubt they raised the bar for movies of their time, but just imagine what they did for companies in the business of time travel, and cyborg army assembly in the mid 80's. I'm positive there were hundreds looking to cash in from ideas portrayed in both movies, and I'm not just talking about lunch boxes and t-shirts.... I'm talking about time traveling devices. There is absolutely no way you could not get rich by making one, either you patent it and sell them for "just 3 easy payments of $19.95" or you use it for your own personal benefit. I know some of you are thinking you'd go back in time and use the winning lottery numbers for the mega-millions which is a good idea, but I personally want to own the entire planet.

Take this time to just think about how awesome it would be to actually own Earth........ pretty sweet, huh?

So you may want to ask "But Cody, I've never owned an Earth before, I may like to bid as well.... What kind of numbers are we talking about here?" Well.... to be quite honest I'm not sure, but lets try and figure it out real quick. Since "debt consolidation is such a big practice these days, we will assume I could purchase the debt of America for $.30 cents on the dollar. Here's a list of the most notable costs per country.... AND I know some are actually continents.... so for arguments sake lets just assume you've already complained about it and I've given you credit for correcting something I haven't already documented... I'll put a gold star by your name, promise.

America ($12,582,643,010,458 approx. worth of debt) X 0.3% = $3,774,792,903,137
Africa = 700 goats
Canada = lifetime supply of Montreal Canadiens tickets.... so about $33 dollars
Asia = Even trade.. hamburgers for opium and Asian women
South America = I'll build handicap accessible bridges across the Rio Grande so everyone has a chance to get deported equally
Russia = 50% stake in Honda so they can learn how to build decent cars

Now that I've eliminated most of my competition because you're thinking "who the hell do I know that has 700 goats?" I'll continue. After I'm sole owner of Earth I'll renovate it so I can flip it on the intergalactic planetary market, and move to a much nicer galaxy in another solar system.... Maybe a planet made of 2 giant double scoops of ice cream, where continents are made of different flavors and the sea is hot chocolate........ mmmmm chocolate!

Do you see now what kinda of possibilities exist with time travel? What's the big problem with building one of these machines? Microsoft? SONY? Starbucks?..... How hard could it be building a device the can alter time and space? I practically did the hard part when I was 6 years old of mapping it all out with crayons. 6 steps... that's it... here's how.

6. Attach a 350 V8 to a leaf blower
5. Point 2 radio speakers toward each other, one tuned to 102.1 the other to 102.3 but invert 2nd speaker
4. Place 2 mirrors facing each other between the speakers adjacent to leaf blower
3. Erect a trampoline behind the mirror
2. Microwave the object on high for 3 minutes inside a vat of mashed potatoes (homemade)
1. Feed object through leaf blower with engine running exactly 4,321 RPMs

* the inverted speaker twists the audible space
** the mirrors reflect visual space
*** the trampoline reverses momentum
**** the microwave........ heats...... stuff
*****4,321 is my favorite number

Theoretically, when the steps are done in reverse sequence the object will be projected through to the time/space directory.... just follow the on screen instructions after that.... You may need to install Adobe Flash Player or else some issues may occur.

Before you go leapfrogging through time PLEASE READ THE REST FIRST

Obviously we have the technology to achieve time travel as I've just explained, BUT it will never be acknowledged by the govt. because of 2 crucial points expressed in both movies. They will claim its not possible, but these are the real reasons.

Terminator... If anyone tells you they are from the future, USE A CONDOM. Otherwise robots from 30 years in the future may send a cyborg back to kill you to prevent you from giving birth to your son, who 30 years later leads a resistance against an army of machines hell bent on destroying humanity.

Back to the Future... Don't interact with yourself......... oh and don't bang your mom (very important)

Obviously the govt. is against the destroying of mankind by machines... they'd personally take care of that themselves. They are also against banging your mom.... because that's just sick.

I know its a huge leap of logic, but its clear as day.... these movies destroyed my dreams of becoming an intergalactic planetary salesman and moving to vanilla on a double scooped ice cream planet. Vote for me next election and we'll all be better off
