I entered a speech contest yesterday, with the local Toastmasters
clubs downtown. They had a contest on impromptu speaking ("table
topics" in their vernacular). We started out with nineteen
contestants, and voted our way down.
When there were only thee of us left, they decided to ask us all the
same question. "You just scored the winning touchdown. What is your
touchdown dance? Please demonstrate."
I told that that I'd do the Safety Dance, which I did for a bit up on
stage, and I ended up being the grand winner. Who knew Men Without
Hats still would have such an impact? And I didn't even have a small
jester dancing around with me...
