If you had a time machine, which year would you travel to and why?

You know....I've often thought about this. When i say often, I mean at least once a week. There are so many things that have happened in the world that I want to see. The Gettysburg Address? D-Day? The Bolshevik Revolution? The fall of the Berlin Wall? The life of Jesus Christ? The building of the Pyramids of Egypt? Medieval Europe in its prime? The American Revolution? Augh....I could go on. Point is, I want to see it ALL. I mean think about it, the history of the universe is like the biggest, most in-depth, unpredictable, mind boggling novel the cosmos could come up with (yes, the universe, not just Earth. I refuse to believe this little speck in the void is the only place where consciousness exists) And I'll never get to read it. And if i COULD, no human mind could fully wrap itself around the infinitesimal nuances that occur every passing second.I know, I'm a nerd, but seriously, its thoughts like that that make me envious of Historians. Its their JOB to read and understand as much of this "book" as they can in their short lives. And they get paid for it. I guess I'm too egotistical to do that however. I'd rather be the one they read about. Not in a big way, but its one of my goals to become an SFI term for some poor AP US History student someday. Yeah...well...its 2:33 AM...I should sleep.....but nah, screw that...
