#1 I wonder how many Uzbekis can count to 50, or estimate 300 accurately, much less 500.

"Pick a number", said the reporter.
"Okay, 25."
Look of disappointment. "Higher."
"50."
Head shake. "Higher."
Thinks really hard. What's the biggest number he's ever heard... "500."
"Cool. Here's your $10. Same time, tomorrow?"
"No, I don't think so. I can retire, now."
