Thank you.
I'm going to start with this one from John Cornell.
Sorry, I said that with an American accent.
I don't know if he's American.
That's just because of the university.
From John Cornell.
Exactly.
Equally likely.
And he said, I love this fact, actually, just came across this fact about the Hooli people of the Heller province in Papua New Guinea.
And it is that the young boys of the Hooli tribe aren't considered real men until they've attended Whig school.
And he says, and made either an ordinary or a ceremonial wig.
And then he specifies, I'm not a real man, sadly.
And that's okay.
No judgment about not making a wig.
Are you guys real men?
I've never made a wig.
Funny old childhood you have.
Actually, in the source that I read, I think you guys might be men because it actually said that the oldest known tradition is where the boys learn the fundamentals of the Hooli tradition, which is how to grow their hair to make interwigs.
And actually, I think it's more about how to grow your hair in a wig-like manner.
Well, you can, I think, according to maybe the Hooli people.
