I actually met a guy who brought 'fair and lovely' from Nepal as he thought he has dark complexion and wanted to "lighten" his skin. I thought that is just too much.

Only in Nepal are there Yetis roaming about in the Himalayas.

Thanks Confused for adding that anecdote. That's pretty likely. And I myself was wondering for a long time how the president of the USA can work without having ministers !

For those who did not get that in Nepali, here it is again-

Only in America is a priest called a minister and the minister a secretary
