Body language is key I have observed a few speed dating events and always notice guys slumped forward leaning in with a miserable face. Although it is very important to listen to the girl, make sure you are listening with a smile, you can lean in a bit to build comfort and rapport but makesure your shoulders do not tense up (Alpha males have relaxed shoulders) and your hands are resting on the table in a clasp position (like news readers do)so it is easy to gesture. Maintain good eye contact, when you look away make sure it is to the side and not down towards the floor.
Also you only have 3 minutes. I would try to make humours cheeky statements of assumption to get her to reply. For example, "is that a accent I detect, you are not originally from around here are you?"
She says "no I am from XXXX" you say "Oh before I came here my mum warned me about girls from XXXX they are trouble"...make sure you are laughing as you say it. You want to be a source of energy not a sink.
cheers man, the cocky funny stuff I can do, the body language and eye contact is an area I'm working on, I want to get some NLP thought projection going on, some Ross Jeffries mind fucking! Any other idea's welcome'd
