Okay. So this coming weekend, I may or may not be involved in certain traditional festivities involving a friend of mine from law school, which may or may not involve me getting up in front of a group of people who may or may not be drunk and speaking about/giving best wishes to said friend and said friend's significant other. Did I mention that the group of people of whom I am speaking may or may not be friends or relatives of my friend and said friend's significant other? Did I also mention that I don't actually know many of these people besides said friend and said friend's significant other?
I am a little rusty in terms of what makes a good speech/best wishes message for such an event, and I'm interested in hearing any suggestions about how this might be as meaningful/painless for everybody as possible.
Did I also mention that I may or may not be drunk by then and I am trying to avoid any catastrophes of Costanzian proportions?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

3 bourbons, good. 5, bad.
Good: "So then I see Tim running for the car, and the goat is chasing him, and the whole thing was such a hoot..."
Bad: "So then she, uh... yeh, she says 'I got this goat behind the barn, and for fifty American dollars...'"
Reallly Bad: "And Tim was tripping soooo fucking hard... I mean, REALLY losing his shit..."
Deserving The Hook: "I've never seen anyone drive that fucking drunk before... Tim can survive anything... I mean anything! I love you, Tim!"
