[Callers] Make them laugh!

In the recent "easy dances" thread there was a brief discussion about
attracting attention and keeping dancers quiet enough to hear the walk
through, using humor.

what tricks/words do you use to get people laughing (and therefore paying
attention)? Here are a couple of things that I use. I find that as soon as
they are laughing with me, they are also paying attention.

1. Men (or everyone, or ladies), Identify your right hand. (Then use it for
a star or allemainde)

2. Take hands in a ring. Look at the person in your right hand. They don't
know you are looking at them, because they are looking at someone else....
(Before a petronella turn)

It's often just enough to make them smile, and pay attention, too. What are
some other possibilities?
