If you want to synchronize two or more threads, you need to do so 
manually using objects like Locks, Events, Conditions and Semaphores. 
See the threading module.

Even if you managed to get two threads started simultaneously (which the 
  OS doesn't even offer IINM), the would soon run out of sync.

How about you tell us what you *want*, and we tell you if and how it's 
possible to do that.
