Loading a flat file + one additional field to a Hive table

Hi,
 
Can any one please suggest the best way to do the following in Hive?
 
Load 'todays date stamp' + << ALL FIELDS C1,C2,C3,C4 IN A FILE F1 >> to a Hive table  T1 ( D1,C1,C2,C3,C4) 
 
    Can the following command be modified in some way to acheive the above
    hive > load data local inpath '/software/home/hadoop/dat_files/' into table T1; 
 
My requirement is to append a date stamp to a Web log file and then load it to Hive table.
 
Thanks,
Raj
