HRC Venice Event in St. Paul

Crystal and Kimmy's introduction. Sorry about the quality, it's from my camera and it was hella dark in there.

Transcript:
Thank you! Kim's not gonna speak. Little Penn and Teller thing. I'll be doing the talking. Thank you so much for coming here tonight and we wanna - Kimmy and I and Open Book Productions wanna thank the HRC for having us. Its a privilege and an honor to be included in this. Um, and I wanna talk to you a little bit about how we were inspired to come up with Venice, but firstly I wanted to read you my, um, horoscope.

Why not? ... I mean ...and what I like to do is I like to read all of them and then pick the one that I actually like...because I like to create my own life as opposed to having people dictate how I should live it. Um, Leo: Oh god, where are my glasses? Your child-like wonder will be reignited. Believe first, and then you'll see And then it goes on to say you'll rub off on someone who desperately needs a bit of magic in his or her life, but I think that's getting off the point.

It's the Believe first and then you'll see because that's what this was for us, was believing, through the Otalia storyline and Guiding Light, there was an audience out there and they wanted to see this story be told, so we believed in it, and the audience believed in it, you believed in it, and that's why its here. Um(someone shouts thankyou) thankYOU. So please, have another drink on me, and uh, enjoy Venice. Thank you guys.

Thanks for the transcript. I put it in the info section and tweaked it a bit. Much appreciated!

@zeroesmyhero No problem. I missed the first little bit and i just could NOT figure out the bit about dictating your life. It's probably a little easier if you were there! Thanks for posting the vid anyway

[zeroesmyhero]

yeah I don't think I could have deciphered it unless I was there and remembered most of it. lol. Thanks again!
