Fist-Pumping In Libya: Not The Best Idea

Ryan Calder explains why the Jersey Shore ritual doesn't quite translate to Libyans as a dance move:

Me: “Why not?”

Muhammad, laughing: “The rebels will launch a rocket at us.”

Me: “Huh?”

Muhammad: “The fist-pump in the air — that’s what Gaddafi and his guys do. The rebels do this [he puts two fingers up in a "V"]. Stick with the two fingers.”

(Muhammad changes the CD.)

And be wary of driving in a white pick-up truck.
