Anyone have Mr Peabody's WABAC Machine?

Admit it... plenty of us out here are old enough to remember the WABAC.... (Way Back)

Sure would like to use it to go back to 1940's and take advantage of this deal... This ad is from E-Bay --- Amazing!

Unfortunately, if we went back we'd also have 1940s salaries and probably couldn't scrape together the thousand bucks to spend on a seasonal piece of property. I'd go just to see Governor's Island looking more like Timber again.

If only our parents and grand parents would have bought the property WABAC then.

Oh well, perhaps in 60 years from now people will be lamenting what we are lamenting now.

... that would be halfway back. If only Sherman could set it so I'd appear in time to stop myself from loosing the windshield off the ole Glastron. One bad blemish off my boating record and it would be perfect.

{well except for the transom that came off the Minimax ...}
