This book is an hilarious collection of funny speeches and monologues. They were written as manual speeches for Toastmasters ... to advance through the CTM (Competent Toastmaster) and ATM (Able Toastmaster) speech manuals. They were written over a 7-year period (1997-2003) and during this period, James Taris reached the level of ATM Silver. Toastmasters provided the perfect training course for James, who used his newly acquired skills and confidence to launch him into an international career as a public speaker and writer. In fact, between 2002 and 2004, he travelled to 19 countries on 5 continents, fulfilling speaking engagements and a dream of world travel that he had harboured for decades. .....James realised very early in his Toastmasters club training that the best way to capture and retain an audience's attention was with the use of humour. So, making his audience laugh became James' main focus. .....These speeches are his favourites. Making his audience laugh is still the greatest 'high' that James gets from speaking......"When you say something funny, and your audience laughs, you know that it's a genuine response and you've got through to them", James says. .....Actually, you will find that James uses many of his humorous speeches to deliver some very important messages to his audience. ....."It's incredibly hard to get an audience's attention when talking about a serious subject", James continues. "But by using humour, you capture their attention and they listen more carefully to make sure they don't miss out on your next joke or funny line. That's the perfect time to hit them with something important ... something profound. You can then rest assured that your message has been heard loud and clear. Then it's back to more humour. You can't afford to let them doze off for a minute!" .....Public speaking is quite an art, and James Taris has Toastmasters to thank for teaching him the skills, but more importantly, giving him the confidence to speak in front of an audience. .....These speeches and monologues are for your entertainment. And if your goal is to build confidence as a public speaker, they are also a testament to the value of Toastmasters as an excellent way to go. .....Finally, if you have a speech to give, using these speeches to get ideas is probably about the smartest thing you can do!HISTORY.OF.MY.SPEECHESI was fortunate that on my first visit to a Toastmasters club, they were having their club's annual Humorous and International Speech competitions.On that night I sat in awe as several club members gave very confident, entertaining and impressive speeches."Wow!" I thought, "If only I could speak like that."One speaker, Joel, participated in both competitions. He was the one who impressed me most. So, after the meeting I made a point to congratulate him and have a chat."You don't need to visit the other clubs, " he said. "I've been to all of them and this one is the best."Well, that's all I wanted to hear. So, within the next few minutes I became a member of Alfred Toastmasters and volunteered to give my first speech at their next meeting, a fortnight away.Joining Alfred Toastmasters was everything I hoped it would be, and more.Since that time I have given 30 manual speeches and developed my speaking skills to the professional level I aimed for from the very start.In fact, because of the excellent speaker training I got from the club, I gained the confidence to embark on several international speaking tours that took me to 19 countries, on 5 continents.I also turned one of my speeches, Pericles - Athens' Most Glorious Ruler, into a one-man play, The Glory of Athens, which I performed in 10 countries, including theatre performances in London and Hollywood.Most of my enjoyment, however, has come through delivering humorous speeches. The spontaneous laughter from the audience is one of the most satisfying experiences I have ever had.

It was okay, but I needed to learn so much more. Joining Toastmasters was everything I hoped it would be, and more.Over the next 7 years I gave 30 manual speeches and developed my speaking skills to the professional level I sought from the very start.That training gave me the confidence to embark on several international speaking tours that took me to 19 countries, on 5 continents.I also turned one of my speeches, Pericles - Athens' Most Glorious Ruler, into a one-man play, The Glory of Athens, which I performed in 10 countries, including theatre performances in Amsterdam, London and Hollywood.These tours took place from 2002-2004 and I have written about those travel experiences in several books.Most of my enjoyment, however, has come through delivering funny speeches. The spontaneous laughter from the audience is one of the most satisfying experiences I have ever had.Some of these speeches are included in this book, Funny Short Speeches - Examples of 5-10-minute speeches.I hope you enjoy my speeches just as much as my audiences from all over the world.REVIEWSMy! You are a very impressive man with a very impressive vision ... Reading your speeches turned out to be so hilarious I couldn't help myself cracking up every now and then to the surprise (delight or annoyance) of the people around here... I like most of your latest works (speeches), Pericles, The Wandering Knight, Why The Boss Gets Paid More, and the factual, superb and inspirational LIVE FOR THE JOURNEY, (NOT THE DESTINATION)... Dorie (Guam)You certainly have an interesting twist on the story of the three little pigs. I like it ! There are always two sides to any story. Scarlet (USA)

Public speaking can be terrifying. For David Nihill, the idea of standing in front of an audience was scarier than cliff jumping into a thorny pit of spiders and mothers-in-law. Without a parachute or advanced weaponry. Something had to change. In what doesn't sound like the best plan ever, David decided to overcome his fears by pretending to be an accomplished comedian called "Irish Dave" for one full year, crashing as many comedy clubs, festivals, and shows as possible. One part of the plan was at least logical: he was already Irish and already called Dave. In one year, David went from being deathly afraid of public speaking to hosting a business conference, regularly performing stand-up comedy and winning storytelling competitions in front of packed houses. And he did it by learning from some of the best public speakers in the world: stand-up comedians. Do You Talk Funny?: 7 Comedy Habits to Become a Better (and Funnier) Public Speaker shows how the key principles of stand-up comedy can be applied to your speaking engagements and presentations to make you funnier, more interesting, and better looking. (Or at least two of the three.) Whether you are preparing for a business presentation, giving a wedding toast, defending your thesis, raising money from investors, or simply want to take on something you're afraid of, this book will take you from sweaty to stage-ready. You'll learn how to: - Craft a story and content that your audience will want to listen to - Find the funniest parts of your material and how to get to them faster - Deal with stage fright - Master the two most important parts of your performance: timing and delivery Ten percent of the author's proceeds from this book will go to Arash Bayatmakou via Help Hope Live until he is fully back on his feet and thereafter to one of the many facing the same challenges after suffering a severe spinal cord injury.
