base parking lot was shaking violently. Warily approaching, the MPs found
35-year-old driver Doug Jones inside - shirtless, sweating and exercising to

workout that he teaches.
"It's a party," Jones said in trying to describe Zumba (pronounced ZOOM-buh), which is Colombian slang for "fast." "It emulates being in a nightclub without the drinking, the smoking, the bad pickup lines."
