All Indians know how to do that. How do you think I win bar bets and get out of speeding tickets?

All one billion plus of them?


The more I look at this kid and listen to him the more he reminds of Gary.

One is almost tempted to ask - was there a base population in the Caucasus mountains thousands of years ago? Some went south into the Indian Peninsula. Others went north into Europe. Time passed and there were changes but not a lot of them. I've been watching a lot of videos by Prabhu Deva and it's amazing how the dancers look like people I've met from Croatia, Germany, and the British Isles.

Who's Gary?

It's believed Indians are historically connected to Europeans through the ancient Aryan people of the Caucasus mountain region. Not sure if it's 100% true though, but that's the most credible story so far. Good observation

Gary is the "redneck" in question who resembles that kid. Put Gary under the sun long enough and give that kid too much food and they'd be twins.

I know a bit about the Aryan people. Their language was considered "Indo-European". I am not hip with the latest DNA evidence, which would probably settle the matter.

The original "Indo-European" was sort of recreated in Russia. I've heard it spoken - spooky stuff.

There could have been several migrations there and back. The Indians (or their ancestors) had a civilization in the Indus river about 5,000 years or more ago. Who can say who traded with whom, migrated and so on?

For example, the "Romi" of Europe, known as "Gypsies".
