How do you know you are Indian

With apologies in advance to anyone I might offend for this gross generalization.

I read this in a joke book titled "how do you know you are Indian."  One of the ways was: if everything in the house is still wrapped in the plastic it came in. I thought of that when I saw this kid's bike in Leh, still wrapped in plastic, even the tires which. Needless to say, the wrap was worn off the tires. Poor kid, I thought. Would get so badly harassed for that in Canada.

Anyway, I wanted to clarify what I wrote in the last post about the bells around the ponies' necks. They were like cow bells but of all different pitches and sounds. There might have been about 12 or 16 different bells.
