I would like to give a speech at my parents' 25th anniversary for about 4 minutes.
I want it to be humorous and meaningful!
Thanks for your help in anticipation...

I don't know how we could tell you how to do this, fsimons. The speech would have to suit your personality and theirs as well. If you are not normally a humorous person then it won't work trying to be.

You could sit down and write some silly little anecdotes that have happened over the years. Perhaps some funny incidents along the way but don't forget what you think is funny may not be funny to everyone else.

What I am trying to say is, there are comedian type people and there are not. Which are you ? Maybe you will have to settle telling a short story about them.
