*I know several people with six children, so I spent a few moments and tallied up all the women I knew who were definitely done bearing children, and all their children who were either living or had lived to child-bearing age, and made a crude average. The result was 2.4 children/woman, which is a tiny bit above what's necessary for replacement, and also much like the US as a whole. And yes I know "all the women I can think of" is not a method. It was for fun, so I could say "don't judge these friends of mine, without them, the rest of us wouldn't be producing enough children to carry on."
*I have spent several days surfing the Central Asian-to-Siberian You Tube videos (I learned the tune and refrain to
"A-Shuu Deikei-O" and turned it around from a competition taunting game song to a simple song to describe infant's motions when they're dancing, as a welcome-back present to my babies. They weren't impressed, but they were glad to see me). I have a
present for you! It is two excellent musicians in very funny hats playing a competition concert with a komuz (on the left) and a dombra (on the right). I have rarely seen such accomplish musicians be so ridiculously playful. I do not think they are competing for a prize. I think it is a game. Like the
Inuit Throat Singing, which is an improbable girl game involving amazing sounds and the goal is to make your partner laugh first.
Like break dancing. And capoeira, except when you play capoeira you could get your ribs kicked in.
