Test humor is humor that is placed in your written introduction. It is to be read by your introducer, not by you.
Pick a couple of these lines and stick with them. The real value of test humor comes when you have heard the same line being delivered in your introduction over and over. The laughter of the audience will tell you if they are ready to laugh. This concept is called "in fun" (see Wake' em Up Business Presentations for a additional training.)
NOTE: The "?" is for your name, and most of these pieces of test humor can be used for either male or female presenters

The man/woman I am about to introduce is so full of ideas I have heard him described as a manic EXPRESSIVE. Let's welcome ? (lead enthusiastic applause)
