Take me back to March 1st, 1994!

Let's take a stroll down memory lane!

The date is March 1st, 1994, and it's a Tuesday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Pisces. Spring has started to creep in, and the days are beginning to get longer.

In America, the song The Power Of Love by Celine Dion is at the top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, Without You by Mariah Carey is the number-one hit song. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie On Deadly Ground is at the top of the box office.

John Major is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "Only Fools and Horses", "Roseanne", "Home Improvement", and "Babylon 5". Meanwhile, in technology news, a relatively new storage format called the CD is beginning to outpace the regular cassette tape in music sales. The disc-based format gives listeners the ability to skip between songs instead of having to manually rewind and forward.

A new form of communication called "text messaging" is starting to become more widespread. However, it can only be done if both the sender and the receiver are on the same cell network. Meanwhile, a global system called "the Internet" is also starting to take off. Each day, more and more people are learning how to send emails and browse "websites" on the World Wide Web by connecting their IBM computers to noisy dial-up modems. In fashion, "grunge" clothing has fallen out of favor, and women are beginning to wear form-fitting outfits such as slip dresses and pencil skirts. Movies such as Clueless and The Craft have popularized the "sexy schoolgirl" look.

It's 1994, so radio stations are being dominated by the likes of All-4-One, Boyz II Men, R. Kelly, Céline Dion, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams, Meat Loaf, Bon Jovi, Wet Wet Wet, Rednex and Mariah Carey. In Europe, a war is continuing to rage in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the Palestinian city Hebron, 29 people have tragically lost their lives in a shooting massacre. The attacker, an American-Israeli extremist called Baruch Goldstein, was beaten to death by survivors in the aftermath of the shooting.

Tributes are pouring in for comedian Bill Hicks, who recently passed away at the age of 32 from pancreatic cancer. Hicks had been diagnosed with the disease in June 1993. In Gloucester, England, suspected serial killer Fred West and his wife have been arrested by police. The arrests follow recent excavations at their home in Wests' Cromwell Street. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as John Candy, Kurt Cobain, Richard Nixon, and Nicole Brown Simpson would all still be alive.

People are playing video games such as "Bubsy in Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind", "Mortal Kombat II", "Disney's Aladdin", and "Doom". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Full House", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "In Living Color", and "Bill Nye the Science Guy". Children are playing with toys such as Screwball Scramble, Jenga, the Game Boy, and the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive.
