Take me back to November 14th, 2003!

Let's take a stroll down memory lane!

The date is November 14th, 2003 and it's a Friday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Scorpio. Currently, people have "that Friday feeling" and are looking forward to the weekend.

It's November, so the evenings are getting darker and the days are getting colder. In America, the song Baby Boy by Beyonce is on top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, Slow by Kylie Minogue is the number one hit song.

George W. Bush Jnr. is currently the President of the United States and the movie Elf is at the top of the Box Office. In the United Kingdom, Tony Blair is the current Prime Minister. 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.

A popular software program called LimeWire is currently being used by many people to share music, software and videos. It is also a haven for computer viruses. Cameras on phones are beginning to become more and more popular. Although the photographs that they take are still lacking in quality. It's 2003, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of 50 Cent, R. Kelly, Sean Paul, 3 Doors Down, Nelly, Evanescence, Chingy and Beyonce.

Internet users are using MSN Messenger to chat with each other online. A flash animation of badgers singing "badger, badger, badger" has become extremely popular on the Internet. The animation, which loops indefinitely, was published by British animator Jonti Picking in September, 2003. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Pat Tillman, Ronald Reagan, Ray Charles and Marlon Brando would all be still alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "The King of Queens", "Angel", "8 Simple Rules" and "Two and a Half Men". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Medal of Honor: Frontline", "Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow", "Soulcalibur II" and "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time". Children and teenagers are currently watching television shows such as "Rugrats", "That '70s Show", "Static Shock" and "My Wife and Kids".

If you're a kid or a teenager, then you're probably playing with toys such as Gogo's Crazy Bones, the PlayStation 2, the Xbox and Beyblades (spinning top toys).
