7.62 millimeter...FULL METAL JACKET...





"This is my rifle.
There are many like it,
but this one is mine.
My rifle is my best friend.
It is my life.
I must master it,as I must master my life.
Without me, my rifle is useless.
Without my rifle, I am useless.
I must fire my rifle true.
I must shoot straighter than my enemy,
who is trying to kill me.
I must shoot him before he shoots me.
I will.
Before God I swear this creed.
My rifle and myself are defenders of my country.
We are the masters of our enemy.
We are the saviors of my life.
So be it......until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen."


These lines are just as they are, and if they weren't, that wouldn't be Stanley Kubrick.

But, the only problem a guy like me would have watching movies like Kubrick's is, the few days that happen to follow the movie, are real hard for me. Because I get to meet a lots of Pvt. Pyles in my camp too. And even worse is I'm no Sargent Hartman. And this truth ticks me off further!!!! So, its a chain of explosives. Man, its a hard hard world out there!! But heck, the explosions definitely get you high on life!!! So, who cares??!!

Any of you guys haven't watched the movie yet, or need any other Kubrick flicks, just ask PK. Until then, keep parading in my camp and goodbye ladies. :)

Forget how hard they're for you! The few days to come are really screwed up for me cos you'll start treating me like 'Pvt. Pyles' I'm the only scapegoat who you have access to. Guys, wish me luck and see you again if I manage to come out hale and healthy out of this camp!! :P
