The 4th of April, 1984... I know what I did that day.  I was just 14 years old, but I know exactly what I did that day.... 

One of the teachers at the school I was attending at the time decided that all the students should get together and do something silly... put something in a time capsule.  Being 14 at the time, my contribution was... predictable, and a funny snapshot of life in rural Canada.  The funny thing is, many things have not changed much...

The condition of the form is... rather sad.  The time capsule was a glass jar.  Not exactly the best choice for a container you were about to bury in the ground for 24 years.

Some funny bits from the list of favorites (what most of the page consists of):

Food:  Pizza
Pastime:  Video Games

 Hmmmm... nothing new there.  Pizza is still high on my list, and video games... sadly I am an addict... particularly of World of Warcraft.

TV Show:  Hardcastle and McCormic
Movie:  Boy Did I Get A Wrong Number

What was I thinking?  Hardcastle and McCormic? Boy Did I Get A Wrong Number?  I don't remember being such a fan of tacky 80's shoot'em ups or Bob Hope Movies

Subject:  Math
Teacher:  Apple II E

Math has always been a favorite of mine.. all through school and university.  There is something about how it all works that can keep me occupied for far longer than it should.  And My favorite teacher was Apple II E?  Hmmm an indication of things to come... computers were just starting to "arrive" for the average person, and I was already hooked.

Animal:  Animal!

Hehe... I loved the Muppets then... and I still do.  Animal... my favorite of all of them.

Beverage:  Irish Cream

Hmmmm at 14.... how did I know about Irish Cream?

Book:  Red Planet

I was a SciFi fan then and I still am.  Red Planet by Heinlein was and still is one of my favorite books.

So... despite 24 years passing, It looks like little has changed... I'm still rather eccentric, enjoy pizza and SciFi books... I think, though, that my movie tastes have moved beyond Bob Hope classics, and my favorite TV Shows are... well.. not much better and include the new Dr. Who series and... sigh... Top Gear.  OK, so I'm still 14 years old
