shaking occasionally diverts attention away from my speech. I thought if I
did a humorous speech about it, it might not be such an issue.
Thanks for your reply and questions.

reply:
Ray,
Here's my burnt toast to your ToastMaster's Meeting:
Some funny ideas follow and one really, really sick idea too...
"So this is what I get for being a Wal-mart greeter all of my life."
"This is amazing, I stood next to a seismograph and it detected me."
"My wife offered to get me a chocolate shake. I said, 'No thanks.' I was
afraid of what might happen if I drank it."
"You never want to hand me the salt and pepper shaker. I'll empty it."
"I tried calligraphy, but it looked like I was stuttering."
"I learned sign language, but my words fell on deaf ears."
"My dogs loves it when I scratch his back."
"This surely makes washing my hair a lot easier."
"Now everybody thinks I have an invisible itch!"
"How come I'm always the one who gets to scrub the pots in the kitchen?"
"Somebody asked me if I was scared and I said, 'Not unless something scares
me!' "
"Somebody asked me if I was scared and I said, 'Not any more. I've been like
this since my wedding night.' "
"I'll never forget the night my wife said to me, "Shake it baby, shake it!'
"
"Eat your heart out Michael J. Fox." (this is the really, really sick one)
