I have to give a 10 minute speech/monologue for my speech and debate class, doesn't matter what kind. Anyone know of any that are fun, or at least not boring?

I gave a ten-minute speech on the influences of the adult entertainment industry once. Had a white shopping bag with materials in it that I reached into halfway through the speech. The professor shot to his feet and said, "That hand better not come out holding what I think it's going to be holding."

It was actually a catalogue for a regular clothing store, but the models inside were seriously slutting it out. My professor's reaction was priceless though - definitely captured the class's attention. :D

I'm not sure if it is 10 minutes or not, but Patton great speech during WWII would be a good speech to try, if regular usage of the word bastard is acceptable.

I thought of Patton too :) You gotta have some charisma to pull that one off tho.

Martin Luther King Jr.'s I have a dream speech?

What about Dubya's Post 9/11 speech-the the one in DC and the one he delivered in NY. People would either get very emotional or laugh, so its a guranteed winner:)
