    In the spirit of Surf's presentation, how about "Tactical Considerations for the Armed Professional Using a Public Restroom".

    In addition to the obvious humor, some actual tidbits of wisdom can be presented, such as using the stall instead of the urinal, not letting the weapon be seen/grabbed whilst astride the throne, NOT hanging it on the coat hook by the triggerguard, NOT leaving it sitting on the tank when you leave, etc.

    Take the opportunity to slaughter sacred cows and creatively poke folks in the eye.

    Talk about the difference between concealed and discreet carry, and why cops don't seem to grasp it. Especially dicks and other plain-clothes types. Talk about how having an oops-card (a badge) guides how their carry decisions are made, and the comparative peril they're in if discovered vs Joe Citizen.

    Talk about why a citizen's CCW is none of their business.

    Talk about why no one should take advice from instructors that "throw a gun underneath the seat/in the glovebox when I travel." You'll have a few of them in the room.

    Talk about the difference between years of service and years of experience, especially if you have any 20 year and up types in the room. Or 10-15 year types aspiring to think too much of themselves. Relate it to firearms.

    Talk about why 20 minute mini-lectures are ineffective at assessing any instructional ability, except at extremes, and why class time would be better spent on other exercises.

    Food for thought.
