Take me back to July 15, 2000

Ready for a walk down memory lane?

The date is July 15, 2000, and it's a Saturday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Cancer. People are currently enjoying their weekend.

The summer of 2000 is in full swing. The weather is warm, and the evenings are brighter than usual. Most schools and colleges are now finished until August or September. In America, the song "Be With You" by Enrique Iglesias is at the top of the singles charts, while "The Real Slim Shady" by Eminem is the number-one song in the UK. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie X-Men is at the top of the box office.

Tony Blair is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "Friends", "Xena: Warrior Princess", "King of the Hill", and "Dawson's Creek". A relatively new form of communication called "text messaging" is becoming more widespread. Although the technology has been around since the mid-1990s, it was only recently that cell providers allowed users to send SMS messages to people on different networks.

The Nokia 3210 is currently one of the most popular cellphones on the market. In technology news, more and more music companies are beginning to release MP3 players. The new MP3 format means that music listeners are able to listen to multiple albums on the go. It's the year 2000, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Christina Aguilera, Faith Hill, Savage Garden, Destiny's Child, Santana, Sisqó, Creed, Aaliyah and Enrique Iglesias.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Yokozuna, Kirsty MacColl, Dale Earnhardt, and Jennifer Syme would all still be alive. People are playing video games such as "Super Smash Bros.", "Crazy Taxi", "Perfect Dark", and "Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Blue's Clues", "Men in Black: The Series", "CatDog", and "That '70s Show".

Children are playing with toys such as the Nintendo 64, Betty Spaghetty (doll), the Game Boy Color, and Dragonfly RC Stunt Racer.
