In Paris on a business trip at the moment and I have just discovered the bathtub in my hotel room changes colors like a strobe light. Just in case I'd like to sit in the tub and get a headache. Only.In.France.

The Shopping Trolley
Sometimes, I bring it upon myself to introduce my foreign compadres to a little taste of Americana pop culture. The cheesier the better.
Last night my English colleagues were introduced to:
The Shopping Cart:
Of course, before demonstrating this difficult dance move, I had to dub it - "The Shopping Trolley" to aid in understanding.
If you've never seen it - perhaps these guys on YouTube can help:
Last year, this move along with The Sprinkler and The Lawn Mower was busted out in front of some French friends and now they're all convinced that if you go to a club in America you'll see everyone doing these dances in unison like a scene in a 1990s teen movie.
And I ask you - What's wrong with that?!?
Last night my English colleagues were introduced to:
The Shopping Cart:
"A dance technique adopted by most white, male teenagers that requires very little rhythm and coordination. The shopping cart is peformed by placing one arm out in front of you, as if guiding an imaginary "cart," while with the other you branch out and clench a fist to any random area above your waist, as if "taking groceries off the shelf.""
