Actually, both America and the European Continent have below-replacement birth rates now, and have for some time.
Also, Japan.
That is not a good thing.

Okay, so I have more news. My daughter is having TWINS!!!!
Wow! That’s monumental! Congratulations to you, your daughter and the whole family. I see some lively babysitting in you future.
Yes, my daughter is going to need help! The first one can be tough, but two at once? Twins run on both sides of her family. She really wanted twins too. I'm going to tell my mom tomorrow morning. She may faint.
and why is that not a good thing? I was born in 1958... at that time there was 3 billion on this planet... just during my lifetime the population has more than doubled... to 7.3 billion.
makes one wonder how much bigger that number will get during the next 60 yrs... it is estimated that there are more people living today right now on earth than there has ever been alive in the history of mankind ... thats a scary thought...

7.3 billion X 8 oz = 3.65 billion pounds
3.65B/2000=1,825,000 tons
1,825,000 tons of poop every day....... world wide
3.65B/2000=1,825,000 tons

more useless info...
as per above on the poop... here are some numbers that make it more realistic
if a train had nothing but tanker cars filled with the daily amount, the train would be 130 miles long and take 3 hrs and 45 minutes moving at 35 mph to pass the crossing

Good Morning Army. Urlacher had an exciting morning, albeit locked in a bedroom. Serviceman cleaned and serviced AC for spring arrived around 8am, and Tree Man stopped by to give an estimate on a job around 8:30. They're all gone now. Urlacher has been released from the guest room, and Mamaw is cooking breakfast, so everything is back to normal.
Have a Safe and Blessed Day

"Aw Crap!" is what the turd driver in the line waiting at the crossing said when he realized he was blocked front and rear in the jam.
Well we didn't get much rain after I went to bed last night. (thank goodness!!) They extended the flood watches/warnings until sometime Sat-Sun am. A while ago we had some harder rain, then it slowed to light rain. Yesterday we got a little hail here at my house. My mom didn't get any hail. She lives less than 5 minutes from me. Maybe she had the tv up, and didn't hear it though. The pause in rain did help push the water out some, and that was definitely needed. The ground is past saturation point though.
It started out as only bad days during Tues-Wed. Then it was until Thursday. Now they say rain on Friday, with heavy rain and storms Saturday. Sunday we are supposed to have showers. You don't know how glad I will be to have this behind me.
I told my mom that my daughter is having twins. She reacted similar to the way I did. She said 2? I said yes, TWINS. Then we had a nice chat about that. She said there were twins on her side too. I thought it was just my dad's side. Then my ex has twins on his daddy's side. I can't remember if my daughter's paternal grandmother had twins or not on her side. My nephew's wife is due with her baby maybe a little before my daughter's due date. I was so shocked yesterday I didn't ask for the new due date. Of course with twins, they may induce labor early depending on the health of my daughter, and the babies. Babies...that word is never something I considered too hard. I can't wait to find out the sex of the babies. I kind of hope she has a boy and a girl. I'm fine with either sex. I just want them to be healthy and happy. I still haven't decided on my grandmother name yet. I will toy with that while the babies grow.
