EMSalute

In the spirit of the a-ok sign, the shaka sign, or the common thumbs-up sign, Emmett was quick to develop his own hand gesture. The EMSalute (pronounced ee-em-essalute) was first captured on camera before Emmett left the hospital. It consists of extending the pinky finger of the left hand while keeping the thumb and three middle fingers curled.

Emmett illustrates this gesture in the video we posted yesterday, and in the photos below. The EMSalute should not be confused with a similar gesture on the right hand which generally means, "Somebody stinks, and it sure as heck isn't me."
