FUTURE

                                                            1990
One of my sisters once told me
that the world is catching up
to me.  I'm getting
progressively less weird by
standing still...

alchohol and drugs in general            (Well, as of 6/25/93, it looks
are going out of style,                   like I *might* be right about
                                          alcohol, but psychedelics
science fiction has become                are back in.)
mainstream,

rock climbing is more common,

everyone listens to punk rock
(though it's not called that)

microcomputers are no longer
unusual

So, starting with this
principle as my guide,       ("As doom
what next?                   goes, so goes
                             the country")
