I would have no intention of really adapting, though I guess I would have to fake it.Boo8er said:What can you do to adapt to your new life?
My intention (and only reason for NOT bumrushing a moving freight-train head on) would be to END the world of the 1950's sooner. Speed up the women's lib and civil rights movements - and make life as much more miserable as possible for the white priviliged males riding on top of that racist/sexist society. I'd spend my time prior to the journey doing research towards that goal.
The moment I'd step on 1950's soil, I'd effectively be a lone operative on enemy ground.
As for packing.... max out credit cards, take up loans... whatever - and buy gold, gold, gold - and possibly bring a sports almanac - all to fund my operations.
Vive la résistance! Vive la liberté!
