    I'm not joking. Unless you are an accountant, heed this rhetoric:

    Yeah then we will have CPS and some type of orginization that will say we have to pamper them and can't do that. So the kids end up like they do today...either spoiled or completly crazy.

    A person on this site showed me this. NSFW

    Didn't they spoof this when Alec Baldwin was on SNL this last season? It's like this scene but the salesman were elves at the north pole.

    I totally knew it was
    Ed Harris. Though I was surprised that Pacino gave him such a run for his money.

    I appreciate the random post Fatty. Ironically enough I just got out of bed to mull over some material for a sales presentation tomorrow. Awesome timing. Now I need to get my adrenaline down enough to sleep. I haven't seen that movie in about eight years or so, nice to revisit.

    "Put that coffee down! Coffee is for closers,"

    "What's my name? F*** you! That's my name."

    "Oh, what a big man you are! Let me chew some bubblegum lest you can chew it!"

    So many great lines. Ultimately, a great movie that any and every businessman should see at least once.

    Hell, it taught me how to sell sh

    Anybody seen Boiler Room. Kind of a 90's Glengarry Glenn Ross. Ya it's a knock off, but I liked it.

    That's some mighty fine parenting advice Alec.

    I love the fact that Gil from the Simpsons is based on Jack Lemmon's character from Glengarry Glen Ross.
