Take me back to November 3, 2005

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

The date is November 3, 2005, and it's a Thursday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Scorpio. Halloween has just come and passed.

It's November, so the evenings are getting darker and the days are getting colder. In America, the song "Gold Digger" by Kanye West & Jamie Foxx is at the top of the singles charts, while "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor" by Arctic Monkeys is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Saw II 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 "Fear Factor", "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", "Prison Break", and "Bones". 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. Internet users are using MSN Messenger and AIM to chat with each other online.

Cameras on phones have now become the norm. Furthermore, the quality of these cameras is continuing to increase with each new phone release. We are now entering an age where any event can be instantly photographed or recorded. Practically every teenager and adult has a MySpace or Bebo account. It's 2005, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefani, Mario, Kelly Clarkson, 50 Cent, Kanye West and Ciara.

Satirical factoids about actor Chuck Norris are extremely popular at the moment. These "Chuck Norris Facts" consist of absurd hyperbolic claims about Norris' toughness. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Eddie Guerrero, Pat Morita, George Best, and Richard Pryor would all still be alive. People are playing video games such as "Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater", "Gran Turismo 4", "FIFA 06", and "Age of Empires III".

Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Bear in the Big Blue House", "Romeo!", "Veronica Mars", and "American Dragon: Jake Long". Children are playing with toys such as Barbie B-Book Laptop, Furreal Luv Cubs, InteracTV, and K'NEX Big Air Ball Tower.
