I’m from Memphis, and our then-interim mayor made national headlines when he fist-bumped the Dalai Lama during his historic visit to our city. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPbg1b_q25g His Holiness took it in stride and fist-bumped right back. However Mr. Lowery did not get elected full-term mayor during the next election, so you might take that into consideration if you plan to run for office. Shalom

I think he’d laugh, but just for safety’s sake I wouldn’t sign your work. I know he has body guards that might not have his sense of humor.

I’d like to know what the D.L. thinks too- any reply on that yet?

I think the Dalai Lama would prefer the Carmen Miranda get up. But that’s hard to pull off if all you’ve got is a pen.
