Are You Typical?

First, a shout-out to Rebecca Kelch, because I'm stealing this blog idea from her blog. (-:

Are you a typical person in the world? According to research conducted by National Geographic, the world's most typcial person is a 28-year-old Chinese man with a cell phone and no bank account. Here is the link to the National Geographic video on YouTube. It's short, fun, and interesting. Have a look! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B2xOvKFFz4

Along this topic, have you heard it said that everyone has a Chinese twin? Well, sometimes Adam and I really think this is true. We often see people here and we say, "Hey, that's so and so from back home!" Let me give you an example, the guy who fixes bikes on the sidewalk across from our apartment is Stu Strother's twin. The guy who sells noodles in the shop in the alley is Zach Gormley's twin. A few weeks ago on a bus going to Wuhan, the twin of Shelby Knight's Dad sat in front of us. And just yesterday I was passed on the street by the twin of David Holt. Hmm, funny how none of these people are girls. Well, I'll keep my eyes peeled and let you know in another blog if I see YOUR twin!!

  1. That is so funny. Zach was like: "who looks like me?" He was so confused until I read him the whole post. Maybe someday you can snap a picture and send it our way :) Hope you and your family are well.
