Something to lighten the mood

I seem to attract unusual people.

Once I was sitting in the train bound for Hyderabad, at New Delhi station, and a man comes to the window and says 'Have you seen my brother?'
I said 'No', he said 'Thanks' and went away.
He seemed upset about his brother, I never saw him before or after in my life.

There must have been 10,000 people that time at the station, it is kind of big.

Brothers and sisters.
I was at Leaf Rapids, boat landing place nearby the pumping station on Grandville Lake. Manitoba Canada.
I had pitched ma tent taking a rest.
A native passes by, asking 'Have you seen my brother?' Nope. Later another one 'Have you seen my sister?' Nope.
And this went on and on with: Have you seen my brother or sister.
Well there were not just two of them missing each other. There were a whole bunch of them, so I finally figured, they were all parts of the same tribe and that's the way to say it.
I do not know how large it is, wether it is the entire Cree nation or the size of a community, a much smaller group of people.
I hope Canadians will enlight me.
This was in Northern Manitoba, not far the Artic circle.
 
Let's steer way from that....
Could be a recipe for disaster.......

Here in Buenos Aires we have Millions (literally) of Immigrants, most of them Spanish and Italian.

That said, not sure what size Spaniards and Italians think Buenos Aires size is (Hint: NY size) but in both those Countries I had the following dialogue:
"Where are you from?"
"Buenos Aires"
"Oh, do you happen to know my Brother/Cousin ******** ?"
They look disappointed with my negative and often add some extra detail to help, such as:
"He´s a house painter - cook - car mechanic -blonde with a thin moustache - " etc.

Oh well 😉

A common joke, at least in France. Old but goody.
