Take me back to November 24, 1994

Let's take a walk down memory lane.

It is Thursday, November 24, 1994. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Sagittarius. In America, families are currently celebrating Thanksgiving.

It's November, so the evenings are getting darker and the days are getting colder. In America, the song "I'll Make Love To You" by Boyz II Men is at the top of the singles charts, while "Baby Come Back" by Pato Banton is the number-one song in the UK. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie Star Trek: Generations 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. In Ireland, Fianna Fáil leader Albert Reynolds has resigned from his position. His resignation comes after the Labour Party's decision to withdraw from government. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Richey Edwards, Eazy E, Selena, and Bob Ross would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Murder, She Wrote", "Step by Step", "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine", and "Ellen". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Jungle Strike", "Sonic the Hedgehog 3", "The Jungle Book", and "Warcraft: Orcs & Humans". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood", "Fireman Sam", "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", and "The Nanny".

Popular toys at the moment include Pogo ball / Lolo ball, Sylvanian Families, Tiger 2-XL Talking Robot , and Littlest Pet Shop.
