But when I say that I'd control time, I don't mean that I'd go back in time and shoot Hitler's brains out or tell Louis XVI that he'll majorly screw things up. I wouldn't go back in time to change the course of events; let's face it, that would probably do more harm than good. I'd travel in time in the manner of a whim. I've read so many books set in the past: I've read about France in the 1920s and London 1870s. I've read and imagined these places and loved them without being there.

Or better yet: I would get to be in Nirvana's last concert formerly to Kurt deciding to blow his head off before I was even born. That is what bliss must feel like. After all, William Faulkner did say that the past is never
