I Shot the Sheriff – Bob Marley & The Wailers

I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy

All around in my own town
They’re trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy
For the life of a deputy

I say
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff
And they say it is a capital offense

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don’t know
Every time that I plant a seed
He said: Kill it before it grows
He said: Kill them before they grow

I say
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self-defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down

I say
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy

Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket goes to the well
But one day the bottom will drop out
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out

I say
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy

Natural Mystic – Bob Marley & The Wailers

There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
If you listen carefully now you will hear

This could be the first trumpet
Might as well be the last
Many more will have to suffer
Many more will have to die

Don’t ask me why
Things are not the way they used to be
I won’t tell no lie
One and all got to face reality now

Though I try to find the answer
To all the questions they ask
Though I know it’s impossible
To go living through the past

Don’t tell no lie
There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
Can’t keep them down
If you listen carefully now you will hear

There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air

This could be the first trumpet
Might as well be the last
Many more will have to suffer
Many more will have to die

Don’t ask me why
There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
I won’t tell no lie
If you listen carefully now you will hear

There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
Such a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
There’s a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
Such a natural mystic blowin’ through the air
Such a natural mystic blowin’ through the air

Pumped Up Kicks – Foster the People

Robert’s got a quick hand
He’ll look around the room, but won’t tell you his plan
He’s got a rolled cigarette
Hanging out his mouth, he’s a cowboy kid, yeah

He found a six-shooter gun
In his dad’s closet, and with a box of fun things
I don’t even know what
But he’s coming for you, yeah, he’s coming for you

Daddy works a long day
He’d be coming home late, yeah, he’s coming home late
And he’s bringing me a surprise
‘Cause dinner’s in the kitchen, and it’s packed in ice

I’ve waited for a long time
Yeah, the sleight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger
I reason with my cigarette
Then say, “your hair’s on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah”

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You better run, better run
Outrun my gun

Better Justice System

Deixe uma resposta

I recently attended a presentation about justice system in US. The
presenter was Adam Foss and he was in an event Ted Talks. I love the format
of TED. The presentation are given through storytelling and the people
which are called to be a presenter, have 15 minutes to show your point of
view. It’s a wonderful way of sharing stories and everyone was amazed with
his history.
First, Adam was not nice. He asked about who have been committed a small
crime when they were teenagers. After he increased the small crime until
arrived in a big crime and everybody thinks that he must be arrested. So,
he showed us that someone that has a criminal record, don’t have any chance
of survive and maintain a home in US. This person is likely to commit new
crimes. So, someone helped him and today, he is a prosecutor and works with
this type of case.

Personal Finances

Two years ago, my wife and I got a little and wonderful baby. So, my wife
stopped working to take care of our baby. She’s received benefits for 6
months and after that I’d started to pay all the bills.
No problem because it was the deal that we agreed to. But everything
increased in these last two years and our buying power disappeared. The
country has been going through difficult times. Dozens of corruption cases,
the Olympics and one president removed from power.
So, my wife returned to work and I am getting some jobs as a freelancer
daily to pay the bills and save the money for the future. Things are
looking up, but we’ll be thriftier for all my life.

Meeting summary

Deixe uma resposta

At the beginning of the meeting, the manager said about the proposal of
adjusting our wages. In his opinion, this was one of the best proposal from
our company in the last years and it was consistent with the market.
There were only had two segments in Brazil that achieved better
readjustments, but these segments have always been strong and they didn’t
get such good indexes. We all agreed with points from manager and we argued
about our position.
Finally, he asked us to vote in this wage campaign, if we are in favor or
not. These readjustments surprised me, because my segment in Brazil has
been very weird and almost, got to inflation.

Natural Disaster in Petrópolis

Deixe uma resposta

Unfortunately, every year I hear talk about disasters in Petrópolis, Rio de
Janeiro. When summer is approaching, rains are more frequently and begins
the mudslides. It’s an announced tragedy because it happens every year and
people don’t charge for solutions by the rulers.
My brother was in a New Year’s Eve 2 years ago there, when happens an
accident. On the night after party, had a huge mudslide, which passed in
the hotel where my brother slept. We didn’t know where he was sleeping, but
we worried because he stayed in the city. Next day he called us and give
all details what happened. He wasn’t in the hotel, but he had to came back
because the city was destroyed.

Safety laws

Deixe uma resposta

I love driving my car and move to another place, but it’s happening less and less. Brazil is one of the most violent countries in the world when we talk about traffic and it brought strict laws. It’s common pay an expensive fine, not counting the huge traffic jams.
I’m consider a lucky man, because I choose live near from my job. I don’t take my car and go out for some place. Last week I went to São Paulo and that’s outrageous! If you parking in a simple shop of the city, you will pay R$50 more or less. I preferred hang out with Uber and leave my car in hotel. Unfortunately this is a trend.

Outback

Deixe uma resposta

My wife and I love eat in Outback Steakhouse! This restaurant is fabulous and we’ve been always well attended.

Last week, we returned again to the restaurant without making reservations. We waited 10 minutes, but it was well appreciated, because we started to drink a wonderful ice-cold beer. After sitting, we asked for a Bloomin’ Onion. It was unbelievable! My wife love this onion and for our main course, we both ordered a grateful Ribs on the Barbie! Then, grand finale was Chocolate Thunder. This dessert was mouth-watering! An extra generous brownie topped with rich vanilla ice cream, warm chocolate, chocolate shavings and whipped cream.

Of course, we’ll go again to this restaurant.

How I met my wife

Deixe uma resposta

When I was in second year of high school, I turned tutor to a class just entering at high school. This class had a beautiful blonde girl called Tammy. She was very cheerful and soon, we became friends. We’d spend hours talking and our afternoons were great.

But I had a girlfriend and one friend wanted to date her. I was jealous because of her. Then, I broke up with my girlfriend and soon as possible, I asked her when she could go out with me. She traveled on holiday and I hung out with a friend. When she arrived, I told her what’s happened and she cried a lot. I finished what I had barely begun and ran into her arms.

We are married today, together for 13 years old, we have a wonderful daughter and we are very happy.
