I just thought I'd slide by today with a link to a famous rant. The one delivered by Alec Baldwin in the movie Glengarry Glen Ross.
Here's the YouTube let's talk about something important.
He did a North Pole version of this character in a Yuletime Saturday Night Live skit once.
Instead of "put that coffee down" it was "put that cocoa down" and so forth.

Gotta love the motivational use of the alphabet. ABC = Always be closin'.
Knowledge is warranted belief -- it is the body of belief that we build up because, while living in this world, we've developed good reasons for believing it. What we know, then, is what works -- and it is, necessarily, what has worked for us, each of us individually, as a first approximation. For my other blog, on the struggles for control in the corporate suites, see www.proxypartisans.blogspot.com.
