I was in college in 1994 so I don't remember much about anything beyond my campus. I did get my first email account though and that was a pretty big deal.

1994: Art thieves snatch ScreamThieves have stolen one of the world's best-known paintings from a gallery in the Norwegian capital, Oslo. Two men took just 50 seconds to climb a ladder, smash through a window of the National Art Museum in Oslo and cut The Scream, by Edvard Munch, from the wall with wire cutters. The cutters were left behind along with a short ladder as the men fled with the painting. The entire incident was filmed by security cameras. The director of the museum, Knut Berg, said, "It is impossible to estimate the value of the painting. "But it is Norway's most valuable, Munch's most renowned, and it would be impossible to sell."

I was 14 and looked damn good. I would say Pop Culture - I was a huge fan of Snoop Dogg, Supermodels, (Tyra & Naomi) Seventeen magazine & my apparel was off the hook.
