Here is a little gem that I just picked off the net and ruined my keyboard when I
read it:

DIR Prayer

This is my long-hose
There are many like it, but this one is mine
It is my life
I must master it, as I must master my life
Without me, my long-hose is useless
Without my long-hose, I am useless
I must route my long-hose true
I must route it better than the stroke, who is trying to imitate me
I will
Before G.I., I swear this creed
My long-hose and myself are defenders of DIR
We are the masters of the strokes
We are the saviours of the strokes
So be it until there are no strokes, but only DIR
Amen
 
I seem to remember something like that in a movie I watched recently but it went like this:

This is my rifle
There are many like it, but this one is mine
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 route my rifle true
I must route it better than the stroke, who is trying to imitate me

Great movie. Wish I could remember the name.
 
It's Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket.

One of my life's ambitions is to see it as many times as I've seen The Godfather and Apocalypse Now.....

I was sitting here trying to remember the name. I just watched it.
 
The rifle stanzas have been around a little longer than the movie mentioned above.
 
Second greatest movie made, next to the wizard of oz, always good for a few good mother-in-law shots.

Personally I have no need to watch that entire movie. All I need to watch is the beginning with the Sarge and Pyle. Always keeps me laughing for hours. :wink:
 
Amelo,

If you only watched the beginning, then you missed one of the greatest convesations of the movie: The Duality of Man. If you do a search on the net for Full Metal Jacket wavs, I know you can find it. But, unfortunately, it won't be nearly as funny as seeing it in the movie.
