Take me back to November 25, 2003

Let's go back to the 2000s.

The date is November 25, 2003, and it's a Tuesday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Sagittarius. In America, Thanksgiving 2003 is just around the corner.

It's November, so the evenings are getting darker and the days are getting colder. In America, the song "Baby Boy" by Beyonce is at the top of the singles charts, while "Mandy" by Westlife is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Elf 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 "Last of the Summer Wine", "Frasier", "24", and "Room Raiders". 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. Smartphones don't exist yet. There are no Androids or iPhones. Cameras on phones are quickly becoming the norm. However, 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 and AIM to chat with each other online. A flash animation of badgers singing "badger, badger, badger" has become a viral hit on the Internet. The animation, which loops indefinitely, was published by British animator Jonti Picking in September 2003.

People are playing video games such as "RuneScape", "Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne", "Pro Evolution Soccer 3", and "Beyond Good & Evil". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Malcolm in the Middle", "Jimmy Neutron", "That's So Raven", and "Romeo!".

Children are playing with toys such as Gogo's Crazy Bones, HitClips audio player, Playmobil Airport, and Bionicle LEGO.
