As I was sitting at the house last night, for some reason I started thinking about how things have changed in the past 25 years. It some ways it doesn't seem that long ago and in some ways, it seems forever.
Did you know that 25 years ago, in 1997....
El Nino forms in the oceans between Australia causing unstable weather conditions including Hurricanes and drought in the Southern Hemisphere and colder temperatures in the North.
Princess Diana was killed in a car crash while trying to avoid paparazzi.
Dolly the Sheep was the first successful cloned sheep.
Lion King the Musical premiered on Broadway
Woolsworth closed its last stores after 100 years in buisness.
NASA Path Finder landed on Mars
Tiger Woods, at 21 years old, became the youngest ever golfer to win the Masters.
The first Harry Potter book was published.
Mother Teresa passed away at 87 years old.
A civil jury found Simpson liable for wrongful death in the double murder. Simpson was ordered to pay $33.5 million in damages to the Brown and Goldman families.
In some ways it seems these things happened forever ago and in some of the instances, it seems like it was just yesterday. Time flies.
