It's hard to believe it's been 20 years since Kim Possible premiered, a song from that series called the Naked Mole Rat rap is one of those ear worms that can't leave your head after all these years.

The day my favorite Disney Channel show of all time, Kim Possible, premiered. I was 7 years old when this show came out, and I remember watching the first three episodes on that day and I immediately loved it. It was one of my favorite shows at the time, along with SpongeBob SquarePants.

Take me back to June 7, 2002

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

The date is June 7, 2002, and it's a Friday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Gemini. Many people have "that Friday feeling" and are looking forward to the weekend.

The summer of 2002 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 "Foolish" by Ashanti is at the top of the singles charts, while "Light My Fire" by Will Young is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Sum of All Fears 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 "ER", "Touched by an Angel", "Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction", and "Gilmore Girls". Meanwhile, the Nokia 3310 is one of the most popular cellphones on the market at the moment. Stores across the world are currently selling a wide range of custom covers for the phone.

In technology news, more and more people are beginning to gain access to the Internet. Internet speeds are increasing and MP3 sharing is beginning to threaten the existence of music stores. People are using a software program called LimeWire to share music, software, and videos. Unfortunately, it is also a haven for computer viruses. It's 2002, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Ashanti, Nickelback, Nelly, Eminem, Usher, Blu Cantrell, The Calling, Linkin Park and Jennifer Lopez.

The 2002 FIFA World Cup is currently taking place in South Korea and Japan. A rock music genre called "Emo" is beginning to become more and more mainstream. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as John Gotti, Jam Master Jay, Lana Clarkson, and Curt Hennig would all still be alive.

People are playing video games such as "Red Faction", "Final Fantasy X", "Pokémon Crystal", and "Return to Castle Wolfenstein". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "The Simpsons", "Ed, Edd n Eddy", "As Told by Ginger", and "ChalkZone". Children are playing with toys such as e-Kara Karaoke Microphone, Pixter drawing tablet, What's Her Face (doll), and Barbie as Rapunzel.
