  3. You gotta keep on trying. Well, it seem like he came out ok. What happens in 2253?

  5. Too bad the outcome was the same the second time around. Third time a charm? :)

  6. He decides to walk away instead of revenge is an amazing twist.

  7. I admire this kind of determination, too-and I also wish he could push those bullies into the time machine and send them back to the ice age;) Clever 33 words!

  9. Must be me, but I'm kinda wondering what the other guys looked like the second time around.
    Nice one, Rog!
