Haha, let's hope that's the case!

I did a presentation a while back that was completely off the cuff and I did so much better. I'm crutching myself with a highlighted points sheet. I have so much to cover, and don't want to burn rubber like I did in the practice session.

Oh, but I did burn rubber because someone who likes to talk a lot took 9 minutes of what was supposed to be a 15 minute presentation (and I'm the last presenter). I just hope he heeded everyone's concerns about his nonstop talking

Which brings me to another point, and makes me laugh since it's exactly what Chris said to me the other day, when I was complaining about this guy, Danny.

After the practice presentation, he said (something to the effect of), "Yeah, I like to use big words because it makes it sound like I know more." He actually said it! How retarded? I wish I knew who said it, but I was told that if you truly understand something, you can explain it to a five year old. Which probably doesn't mean explain the stuff you know to a five year old, but most likely to just relax and stop pulling out the 25-cent words.

Oh, and he was making up words during our presentation. I hope we don't get torched for that.

Ugh
