Take me back to March 29, 1994

Let's go back to the nineties.

The date is March 29, 1994, and it's a Tuesday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Aries. Spring has arrived, and the days are starting to get longer.

In America, the song "The Sign" by Ace of Base is at the top of the singles charts, while "Doop" by Doop is the number-one song in the UK. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie D2: The Mighty Ducks 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 "Last of the Summer Wine", "Star Trek: The Next Generation", "Seinfeld", and "One Foot in the Grave". 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 Mexico, presidential candidate Luis Donaldo Colosio has been shot dead in Tijuana. His assassination occurred during a campaign rally. In North Carolina, 24 US soldiers have lost their lives in a mid-air collision at the Pope Field air base in Cumberland County.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Kurt Cobain, Richard Nixon, Ayrton Senna, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis would all still be alive. People are playing video games such as "Syndicate", "Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master", "Disney's Aladdin", and "Tetris 2". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "The Simpsons", "Dinosaurs", "Tales from the Cryptkeeper", and "Biker Mice from Mars".

Children are playing with toys such as Pogo ball / Lolo ball, Jenga, Yo-yo, and Jurassic Park: Young Tyrannosaurus Rex.
