A fellow member of our local Toastmasters club, Byron, made it all the way to Toastmasters' "World Championship of Public Speaking" last month. The night before the contest, Byron could not sleep. He had to get up by six to get to the microphone check at seven. He kept one eye on the clock.
At two in the morning he got a text message from another contestant from Kentucky. The message said, "Byron, are you asleep?"
Byron texted back, "No."
