Colonel Jessop Tirade !

[wavey-davey]

"You want the Truth ?!?!? You can't handle the truth!!!

Son, we live in a world that has clubs and those clubs have to be guarded by security firms, owners and promoters.

Who's gonna do it? You? Greater Manchester Police ?

We all have more responsibility than you can fathom. You just weep for the Hacienda and curse the promotion.

You don't know what we know. The Hacienda's existance, to you while tragic, saves lives.

And our existence, while grotesque to you, saves lives!

But deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, -

- you need us at those parties.

- you want us at those parties.

We use words like, CD, flyer, vinyl, loyalty. They're the backbone of our lives. You use them as a punchline!

I haven't the time or inclination to explain myself - to a man who has grapes falling from his ariola - but questions the way we do it. Better just to thank us & be on your way.

Or go buy a cd and stay at home.

Either way, we don't give a damn what you think or what you're entitled to! "

Colonel Nathan R Jessop , United States Marines (A Few Good Men, 1992)
