I met some Gurkhas in a bar in the Canadian Rockies years ago. I got the impression they were not impressed by the Rockies, which one of them called "hills." Compared to Mt. Everest and such, I suppose the Rockies might appear to be a tad puny. None of those guys were taller than 5-foot-4 or so, but their demeanor and bearing sent a message–"Mess with me and risk your life"–in a subtle, yet convincing manner. When our little party broke up, they gave me some beetlenut to chew on and a small rock of hash. From these simple tokens, our bonds of friendship were secured.
Have an up vote, sir
