Order order!

Fellow speaker,

According to professional speaker Patricia Fripp, the order to describe an event is:
  1. When did it happen?
  2. Where did it happen?
  3. Who did it happen to?
  4. What happened?
For example, "On May 8, 2012 at my San Francisco home, my pet dog of 15 years died."

In order,
