I delivered a speech in December. I timed myself- 1 minute 45 seconds. In my speech I had:

- funny joke about the wedding night
- brief story about us as teenagers getting into trouble; but picked a story that was still PG13
- commented about him being my "big brother" growing up
- segwayed (sp?) into congrats from an old friend he hasn't seen in 10 years

One of the other groomsmen who spent the entire wedding week trying to be the "better" man than the rest of us ended up with a 10 minute speech, and people were trying to get the applause going to get him away from the mike. That would have been funny if it wasn't so sad.
