Take me back to June 16th, 2004!

Let's take a walk down memory lane.

The date is June 16th, 2004, and it's a Wednesday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Gemini. It's summer, so the temperatures are warmer and the evenings are longer than usual.

In America, the song Burn by Usher is at the top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, I Don't Wanna Know by Mario Wynans & Enya is the number-one hit song. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is at the top of the box office.

Tony Blair is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. 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. Internet users are using MSN Messenger and AIM to chat with each other online.

It's 2004, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Usher, Alicia Keys, Maroon 5, OutKast, Mario Winans, the Terror Squad and Ciara. In Portugal, UEFA Euro 2004 is taking place. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Marlon Brando, Rick James, Brian Clough, and Big Boss Man would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "JAG", "Malcolm in the Middle", "8 Simple Rules", and "CSI: Miami". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "The Simpsons Hit & Run", "Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando", "Project Gotham Racing 2", and "Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Johnny Bravo", "The Powerpuff Girls", "Static Shock", and "The Cramp Twins".

Popular toys at the moment include the PlayStation 2, Bratz dolls, the Xbox, and RoboSapien (toy robot).
