When you stand up to the mike, reach into your left jacket pocket, pull out a folded piece of paper, and state........" Hi, my name is _____________, and I am an alcoholic.....". Then pause, look at the back of the page, look flustered, and put it back into the pocket, while saying, " sorry, that is Tuesday night's speech." I have used it at a couple of weddings, and it broke the ice.
