Hope all goes well... (4.00 / 3)
And be careful while you're out there!  Watch for those dangerous and dastardly heavily-funded anti-meat groups.  They've been known to attack anybody and everybody!  Thank heavens the Cattlemen's Beef Association is on the case!

Coming soon to a Philadelphia near you!

Moderation (4.00 / 3)
Moderation is a fine thing, if used moderately.

Is this your first time in the mooderator's chair? Any butterflies in the tum-tum?

Best wishes.

I've moderated things before. It's easy - usually - but of course it all depends on the speakers. It gets difficult if the speakers are boring and longwinded and such because you need to find a way to politely get them to stop talking without making them look bad in front of the audience.
