Take me back to September 10, 2004

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Friday, September 10, 2004. Anyone born today will have the star sign Virgo. People have "that Friday feeling" and are excited for the weekend.

Schools and colleges are starting again, and fall has officially arrived. As a result, temperatures are beginning to cool, and trees are starting to shed their leaves. In the United States, Labor Day of 2004 has recently come and passed. To many, this means that the summer is officially over. In America, the song "Goodies" by Ciara is at the top of the singles charts, while "My Place" by Nelly is the number-one song in the UK.

George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Resident Evil: Apocalypse 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. Tragedy has struck Russia, as Islamic militants take over a school in Beslan, Russia. The siege comes to an end on the 3rd of September, with 334 people losing their lives.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Brian Clough, Big Boss Man, ODB, and Dimebag Darrell would all still be alive. On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation", "MythBusters", "The O.C.", and "Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "RuneScape", "Call of Duty", "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", and "Pokémon FireRed Version".

Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "That '70s Show", "Dora the Explorer", "Invader Zim", and "LazyTown". Popular toys at the moment include Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game, Micropets, Justice League Figures, and Namco TV Games.
