13 year old Hailey Dunn from Colorado City, Texas went missing on this day. Her mother reported the disappearance the next day, and despite a massive search expanding much of the West Texas area of Texas, there was no sign of her until when her remains were found near Lake JB Thomas in Scurry County on March 16, 2013. Still remember the story being featured on Nancy Grace back then too.

Take me back to December 27, 2010

Let's go back to the 2010s.

The date is December 27, 2010, and it's a Monday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Capricorn. The weekend has just passed, so some people are feeling a bit down. Others are tired after partying too much.

Christmas Day of 2010 has just passed, and many people are relaxing at home and enjoying the holiday season. In America, the song "Firework" by Katy Perry is at the top of the singles charts, while "When We Collide" by Matt Cardle is the number-one song in the UK. Barack Obama is the President of the United States, and the movie Tron Legacy is at the top of the box office.

David Cameron is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "CSI: Miami", "One Tree Hill", "Glee", and "Raising Hope". Video rental stores such as Blockbuster are continuing to close their doors at the moment. Sadly, it seems as though they will be unable to compete with online streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu.

It's 2010, so the music charts are being dominated by artists such as Kesha, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Eminem and Bruno Mars. People are using pre-made comics called "Rage Comics" to share funny and relatable experiences. People on the Internet are using the phrase "That Really Rustled My Jimmies" to express their annoyance at things.

Anti-government street demonstrations are taking place in Tunisia following the the self-immolation of a man called Mohamed Bouazizi. The protests have been caused by high unemployment and the cost of food. The US Military has officially repealed its controversial "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Pete Postlethwaite, Nate Dogg, Elizabeth Taylor, and Randy Savage would all still be alive.

People are playing video games such as "League of Legends", "Heavy Rain", "Halo: Reach", and "Civilization V". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "LazyTown", "Go, Diego, Go!", "Horrid Henry", and "iCarly". Children are playing with toys such as Crayola Crayon Town, Harumika (dolls), Duck Hunter, and Moxie Girlz Art-titude Dolls.
