Let's take a stroll down memory lane.
It is Saturday, July 2, 1994. Anyone born today will have the star sign Cancer. People are currently enjoying their weekend.
In America, the July 4th celebrations are fast approaching. The summer of 1994 is in full swing. The weather is warm, and the evenings are brighter than usual. Most schools and colleges are now finished until August or September. In America, the song "I Swear" by All-4-One is at the top of the singles charts, while "Love Is All Around" by Wet Wet Wet is the number-one song in the UK.
Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie Lion King is at the top of the box office. John Major is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. 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. On the continent of Africa, a horrible event is unfolding, as the Hutu majority in Rwanda attempt to wipe out the Tutsi minority. This genocide began following the assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana.
In the United States, the 1994 FIFA World Cup is being held. In Germany, the final Russian troops have left the country. This marks a final end to Russian occupation after nearly 50 years. In Japan, 8 people have lost their lives following a sarin gas attack by the Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult. The attack took place in a quiet neighborhood in Matsumoto, Nagano.
American figure skater Tonya Harding has recently been banned for life from the sport. The ban has come as a result of her involvement in an attack on rival skater Nancy Kerrigan back in January. In a tragic turn of events, Colombian defender Andrés Escobar has been shot dead in Medellín. Escobar's murder is believed to be revenge for the own goal that he scored against the United States in the 1994 FIFA World Cup. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Raul Julia, Richey Edwards, Eazy E, and Selena would all still be alive.
On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Matlock", "Full House", "Family Matters", and "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "X-Men", "Gunstar Heroes", "Myst", and "Sonic the Hedgehog 3". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Roseanne", "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", and "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers".
Popular toys at the moment include Screwball Scramble, Nerf Blaster, Magna Doodle, and Jurassic Park: Young Tyrannosaurus Rex.
