i accidentally (and naturally) did the nazi and caesar salute too, and of all places, it was in a restaurant in hanover, germany. i was in a black suit with black tie and black shades (sunglasses). i was first to be seated at the center table of the restaurant and my colleagues and fellow german associates showed up later. when they were at the door i immediately stood up and reached out my hands to let them know where i was seated. unfortunately i straightened my arm horizontally and pointed all fingers flat at them as a sign of saying “hello!” at that moment all restaurant patrons and workers were shock and stared at me in disbelief. very shiok!
