I actually thought it was a pretty funny way to show off the wedding bands.

I'm pretty sure that's the 4th finger, which at least in the US doesn't mean anything on its own (though just try explaining that to confused and humorless American schoolteachers. I, uh, heard that from a friend  ;) They're probably just jealous since most people can't work their 4th finger independently).

Does the 4th finger version have its own special meaning somewhere?
