Take me back to March 31, 2007

Let's go back to the 2000s.

The date is March 31, 2007, and it's a Saturday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Aries. The work week is over and Saturday has finally come, so people are spending time with their kids, going to bars, shopping, playing video games, and watching sports.

Spring has arrived, and the days are starting to get longer. In America, the song "Glamorous" by Ludacris & Fergie is at the top of the singles charts, while "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by Proclaimers is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie TMNT 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 "King of the Hill", "Gilmore Girls", "Room Raiders", and "CSI: NY". Practically every teenager and adult has a MySpace or Bebo account.

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. Meanwhile, in technology news, more and more people are beginning to use the Internet on their phones. This transition towards mobile Internet has been aided by the recent roll-out of faster 3G networks and the introduction of larger touchscreen phones. It's 2007, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Sean Kingston, Soulja Boy and Nelly Furtado.

A financial crisis is looming. The stock market recently witnessed its worse fall since 2003 and house prices have started to decline. News organizations are reporting that the subprime mortgage market is "troubled". Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has predicted that the United States will fall into a recession by the end of 2007.

People are playing video games such as "Dead Rising", "Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent", "Bully", and "Battlefield 2142".

Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Caillou", "SpongeBob SquarePants", "Dora the Explorer", and "American Dragon: Jake Long". Children are playing with toys such as the Xbox 360, Bratz Babyz, Roboraptor, and the PlayStation 3.
