Take me back to September 25, 2006

Let's go back to the 2000s.

The date is September 25, 2006, and it's a Monday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Libra. The weekend has just passed, so some people are feeling a bit down. Others are tired after partying too much.

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. The earthy smells of autumn have started to fill the air. In America, the song "Sexy Back" by Justin Timberlake is at the top of the singles charts, while "I Don't Feel Like Dancing" by Scissor Sisters is the number-one song in the UK.

George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Jackass: Number Two 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 "Smallville", "CSI: Miami", "Dog the Bounty Hunter", and "The Office".

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 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 2006, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Daniel Powter, Sean Paul, Nelly Furtado, James Blunt, Gnarls Barkley, Shakira and Natasha Bedingfield. A rock music genre called "Emo" is extremely popular at the moment. The genre, which stands for "emotional hardcore", has created a subculture of "Emos" who dye their hair black and wear thick-framed glasses.

If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Adrienne Shelly, James Brown, Gerald Ford, and Bam Bam Bigelow would all still be alive. People are playing video games such as "Nintendogs", "Age of Empires III", "Mario Kart DS", and "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids", "Jimmy Neutron", "Unfabulous", and "Wonder Pets!".
