Sgt.Hartman character is unbelievable..Kubrick is too good..Just read 1 of these most famous ones ever..

Sgt. Hartman: "How tall are you, private?"
Arliss Howard as Cowbo: "Sir, five-foot-nine, sir!"
Sgt. Hartman: "Five-foot-nine, I didn't know they stacked shit that high. You trying to squeeze an inch on me somewhere, huh?"
Cowboy: "Sir, No Sir."
Sgt. Hartman: "Bullshit! It looks to me like the best part of you ran down the crack of your mama's ass and ended up as a brown stain on the mattress. I think you've been cheated. Where the hell you from anyway private?"
Cowboy: "Sir, Texas, Sir."
Sgt. Hartman: "Holy dogshit! Texas! Only steers and queers come from Texas Private Cowboy and you don't look much like a steer so that kinda narrows it down. Do you suck dicks?"
Cowboy: "Sir, No Sir."
Sgt. Hartman: "Are you a Peter Puffer?"
Cowboy: "Sir, No Sir."
Sgt. Hartman: "I bet you're the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the god damned common courtesy to give him a reach around. I'll be watching you.":

i jus cant stop laughing..jeez, he was good.!

Work's going on, atleast better than before..Just tht a little too much of carefree spending(by my standards) on food n stuff..But this' LA and i knew tht this would happen..
Wat to do..Saapaadu namakku romba mukiyam !
I was apprehensive that Chidamabaram's too much talking and creating hype would undo him but i guess he stod up and delivered a balanced budget(from whaat little i can make of it). Periya ShahRukh fan pola !(Mein Hoon Naa)..
Apart from tht, I'm the son made interesting reading..The 1 thing i am not clear is did Kamal call himself the son of brando, or was he generalizing tht to mean his generation of class actors who are a generation behind brando and who r inspired by him.. I almost believe he meant he was the son of brando which caused a furore as can be seen in the comments section..
Still, a pretty neat write-up by Kamal.
Other news, saw McEnroe y'day on CNBC..Watz he trying..Standup comedy or what..Hes caught in between ..neither stand up or a good talk show stuff..Lets c how it goes..i jus saw first 10-15 mins until when roddick is on the phone.Wasnot very entertaining really..
Watched Kadhal Kondein..Pretty good movie..Dhanush pramaadham pannitaan..Sonia Agarwal's my chic from now on.! Am now waiting for 7G Rainbow colony, the next Selvaragavan movie , the trailer of which i saw and which was promising..lets c.!

Rest in next

My sis has joined the IT program in an engg college.. I guess many ppl r going to IT once again..Looks like a re-rising of IT/CS after that C.S boom (i guess 96-2000) when every1 was opting for a CS seat in engg or if not available, atleast shooting for a B.Sc in Copmp Sci..Then , after this dotcom bust happpened,every1 thot ECE was the best investment and then EEE..Now, its come a full circle and back to CompSci and IT, now that the industry is really booming there..On the flip side, even a Civil engr finally is placed in a software company as a computer science engr thru campus placement..This, they attribute to the fact that there r no Civil Engg companies coming to campus and hence they take to these s/w firms..But i seriously feel that even if they had a choice(of a civil engg vs s/w job) they would take to the s/w job because obviously it pays more..Finally, for most ppl ,its a question of money (pretty cold-blooded of me to make such an assumption ;)) ..Infact, i was the only guy i think working in a non-software position after college..Almost all of my EEE batchmates were in one s/w company or another..Mebbe, even i would've tried for a s/w comapny if i had not got this campus placement at SCM..Another thing tht i feel is that the number of ppl who come for MS wud now steadily reduce as most ppl land a job after college now in india..I would b really surprised if the number of students who come to my univ is nearly as much as last years or the year before's number..I think am going to blog more abt GRE, MS and the like soon..

Best
