Were caught in a trap
I cant walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why cant you see
What youre doing to me
When you dont believe a word I say?

We cant go on together
With suspicious minds
And we cant build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again
Asking where Ive been
You cant see these tears are real
Im crying

We cant go on together
With suspicious minds
And be cant build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Lets dont let a good thing die

When honey, you know
Ive never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah

Labels:

Maybe I didnt treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didnt love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Maybe I didnt hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
Im so happy that youre mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, Im sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind..

ow many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

The Czech proposal is an example of a flat tax that doesn't exactly pass the transparency test. The measure has been sold as a simple 15-percent rate to replace the current four-tiered progressive scale of 12 percent to 32 percent. But because it actually taxes earners' “super-gross income,” which includes contributions to health and social insurance, the effective rate is closer to 23 percent, a fact that "undercuts some of the flat tax's chief attributes – simplicity and transparency," The Wall Street Journal observed recently.

Small talks with project managers...

Analyst: Hey, you know we have not analized what the customer needs in case of pricing module, we should take care of this analysis before we go further in design.

Project Manager: Oh, man, do not dig the shit more!
Analyst: Ok man, you will get what you are heading to.

---------------------------------------------------
Another talk with another project manager...

Project Manager: As a project manager I am, I do not need to read and know the use cases, it's the analyst job, I do not have time for that crap.

Analyst: Really, then how do you know the scope and what's required functionality when you are talking with clinet?

Project Manager: (silence..)

Another tip for PMs: 1 woman can deliver 1 baby in 9 months, it does not mean that 9 women can deliver 1 baby in 1 month. Sometimes you need duration not mandays..Consider this!

We live, we choose, we die, we love...life, so many things to learn, so many years to grow up, so many mistakes to make and so many smiles to have...Maybe we never learn, we never choose, we never die...we come and we pass away...the remaining is the glimpse of life...
