Let's take a walk down memory lane.
The date is May 21, 2008, and it's a Wednesday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Gemini. It is "Hump Day", so many are beginning to think about the weekend ahead.
The summer of 2008 has finally arrived. The weather has warmed up, and the evenings are brighter than usual. The school year is nearly finished. Memorial Day weekend is only a few days away, which means that many Americans are planning picnics, barbecues, and other outdoor events to celebrate the unofficial start of summer. In America, the song "Take A Bow" by Rihanna is at the top of the singles charts, while "That's Not My Name" by Ting Tings is the number-one song in the UK.
George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is at the top of the box office. Gordon Brown is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "Last of the Summer Wine", "Stargate SG-1", "Boston Legal", and "Bones".
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.
A growing social network called Facebook is beginning to steal users away from MySpace and Bebo. Video rental stores such as Blockbuster are struggling to compete with online streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu. It's 2008, so the music charts are filled with artists such as Flo Rida, Katy Perry, Rihanna and T.I.
If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as George Carlin, Bernie Mac, John Costelloe, and Test would all still be alive.
