3. Might work if you're male
If a female goes back and kills her grandfather, I don't think she can become her own grandfather. Not sure about any of this, never went back in time.

2. These questions always make my brain hurt
I love time travel stories - I get so caught up in the details of how it would all work that my brain almost seems to get warm with all the thinking.

Which makes me think of a good question....

7. I'd give him a pair of my jeans, put
a bug in his ear that he could make millions selling them, come back and live off my trust fund.
