Would you show the President Independence Day to scare the bajeezus out of him?

Good idea but I meant burned with info. I guess I ccould just take more drives.

I'd bring a nuke. Actually two nukes, one to show I'm not fscking around and the other to own the world.

"Alright you primitive screw-heads, listen up. See this? This is my boomstick! It's a 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan; retails for about one hundred nine, ninety-five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right, shop smart, shop S-Mart!"

The result of unexpected sporting events (on which bets were made). This could make some big profit. Also, some starting cash (in form of gold). Patenting things would be a good idea too

A notepad with a listing of stock prices, some gold, and the address of a bank that hasn't moved since then.

Step 1: Go back in time and buy stocks.
Step 2: Go forward to present day and sell stocks.
Step 3: Profit!
