"Now the next page I have here is "What People are Saying". These are quotes about you, getting other people to write things about you. You notice that I had already shown some of these in the press release, and I also quote some of them in my bio, however, this is a separate page because more pages, the more exciting. And I can get you to see how people can see each of these pages, that they each exist, in a moment, but first let's talk about some of these quotes. So I already showed you some of these, this one's from HM Magazine, we've got to Dallas Morning News here, we've got a bestselling author that says something here, he says "Hearing Peter perform is like taking a running leap off the rim of the Grand Canyon with your hands tied behind your back, so that the only way to pull the parachute's ripcord is with your toes". Wow, nice, man, that guy's a good writer. If I can get some bestselling author to write something for me, you know it's going to be good. Then I've got the Santa Fe Reporter, that's a newspaper that's not quite as big as the Dallas Morning News but still, it's a newspaper. Then I've got the Austin Poetry Slam Champion who's impressed with what I'm doing in 2002, that was a while ago. And then I've got this coordinator for an Arts Festival. Next, down here, I've got a couple of things, it's kind of like, here's the doorman at a club, so even the doorman's impressed with us, and then I've got a little five year old girl saying "You guys are the king of funny and the king of weird"! Those are all the different quotes that I have, just in my thing. There's lots more quotes that I have, but what I wanted to get was the ones that are most eye popping, that come alive the most to you and just make you either laugh or have some sort of experience because I want you to remember me. That's the whole point of the press kit, remember me."
