No. Usually nothing is static except for the main() method.

Create a new thread with its run() method that calls the methods that you want to execute on that thread.

Put the calls to the methods inside separate run() methods and create and start threads as is done in post#1

The two methods are executing on the same thread.

Please explain what doesn't happen.
Add the value returned by the System class's currentTimeMillis() method to all printed messages so you see when they were executed.

Add some more println statements where the threads are created that print out messages at each step in the execution of the main method that show when when each statement is executed.
