re: What was your life like in the year 1996?

Went to school at a small upstate South Carolina liberal arts school. I turned 21 this year and moving from junior to senior year at college.
Just finished doing my ROTC advanced camp at Fort Bragg which is the big evaluation period to see where you are placed upon commissioning. I was in the very last group to ever attend camp at Bragg.
Spent a couple weeks in BR and NO after camp visiting relatives and what not, and mostly to avoid ATL during the Olympics.
Lost 40 lbs in a month in a half at Bragg, and upon reporting back to football 2/days, lost my starting position as the quick guard.
Parents bought a new house and I didn’t have my own bedroom to come back to.
Seems like a very long time ago :(

Pretty damn good. It took a downward turn when I met the girl I would spend the next 5 years with at the end of 1996. I didn't fully recover financially or emotionally for 10 years after that relationship ended.

I was living in Tokyo, Japan.
I was running Asia for a Fortune 500 company.
I would be moving back to Silicon Valley soon to take over a new internet start-up. My then boss said to me as I was leaving, "You don't believe that people are actually going to buy shite on the internet, do you?"

I was 18, a freshman at UGA, and trying to figure how to get rid of my acne. Things have certainly picked up since then.

Had just got back with the woman who would become my ex wife 16 years later.

Things were way easier than I thought they were at that time.

Between age 23-30 sure were some fun years for me.
My years were between 18-28 for sure except for 22.
I got in an accident while on Spring Break in 96
Trajectory wasn't looking too well during that event.
Otherwise, life was easy as student at LSU.
