If I Had A Time Machine

I was holding LMJ and showing her the Tickle Me Elmo when I got an idea that I think would be really funny. If I could go back in time, of course, I would think about killing Hitler before he rose to power and things like that, but I would worry about the temporal physics -- the grandfather paradox. But before I did that I would have some fun by leaving a Tickle Me Elmo in Salem in 1692 and watch the hilarity ensue. If you're not going to torment freaks what's the point of time travel?

I'd have hung around Palm Beach County in November 2000 to help Esther and Herman negotiate the punch ballot.
