Where's the remote thingy for the PowerPoint?

Laughing all the Way to Work

Some people in the office were trying to get the remote working as we had a PowerPoint presentation coming up and were calling it things like remote thingy , remote slide clicker, wireless mouse so I finally asked, "Does anyone know what the official name for that thing is?" It's called a Presentation Remote. Thanks Patty.

Laughing all the Way to Work

I was in a workshop today on presentation skills and one of the things they had us do was present something to the group while they filmed us. Other than the extra work I need to do at the gym to tone up and trim down, I saw some good qualities as well and it was helpful to see myself present. Thanks Anonymous for sharing.

A funny thing happened on the way to the office.

Laughing all the Way to Work

I went to a writing workshop and the woman who was presenting said that comedians are only as funny as their writers. With me it is a hit and miss sort of thing and sometimes I am funny, sometimes I am melancholy. How do comedians do it?
