Toastmasters Humorous Speech Contest - 2008 Gold Medal, District 59 - John Zimmer

Speech Title: "Pay Attention!". This speech took 1st place at the District 59 Humorous Speech Contest in Bamberg, Germany on 15 November 2008. The contest took place in front of approximately 250 people, and featured the top speakers from Toastmasters clubs in 18 countries in Continental Europe.
I had a lot of fun doing this speech, especially because it gave me a great opportunity to poke some good-natured fun at Toastmasters, which is a terrific organization.

John, This still a great example, and you have certainly proven you can write a great speech for the Toastmaster Audience, being our 2 time champion.Question is, will you go for the famed "three-peat"?
