Top10

David Letterman's "Top 10" segment is legendary, so I thought I would attempt to provide a little levity as well as some compelling reasons why YOU might want to become a Toastmaster. If you are already a member, then consider these reasons why you might want to get more involved.

  • TEN
    WHEN you join a Toastmasters Club,
    you have a reason to clean up and get out of the house.
     
  • NINE
    WHEN you join a Toastmasters Club,
    you realize that "uhs, umms, ahs, soooo" are not words, just sounds you make till you remember what you want to say next.

    you discover that you can listen to anyone speak for 5-7 minute.
