Handshake

Did anyone notice the awkward handshake at the beginning of the last presidential debate? Kerry held on a bit longer than Bush expected I think. Here is my handshaking advice. First, always make sure you do the firm grip thing because if you are like me and have smaller hands, someone can really crush the shit out of you. Start off by not completely extending your arm as to make them come towards you to shake your hand rather than you going towards them to shake their hand. Finally, try to get a bit of a downward tilt going where your palm is somewhat facing down. All this non-verbal shit should at least make you feel more confident if it doesn't accomplish anything else.

This is what I think about when this open memo is due.
