English (Translated)

Who is yours (there), traveller, where will you go
Breath the moment, where will you obtain this shade

Passed are days, having moments of love
Those nights became like dreams
forgotten are you , even you forget
Those meetings of love
Everything is distant and dark, traveller, where will you go

No one waits for your coming
No one will implore eyes
With your pain, no one is tormentend
and No ones eyes are cring
Who will you tell you are mine, traveller, where will you go

Says the wise ones , the world is mortal
like a script written on water
everyone has seen, it has been known by everyone
into no ones hand it has come
Nothing is yours or mine, traveller, where will you go

>>>Dear Don:
>>>
>>> I've been a fan of Expect ever since I first learned of UNIX back
>>>in late '93. I'm young and don't have my CS degree just yet, but I worked
>>>a while back at Texas Instruments in their Telecom Customer Support dept.
>>>I started in late '93 (and hence, that's where I first started exploring
>>>the UNIX environment) and immediately forsaw the need of automating a lot
>>>of my redundant and mindless duties, but I didn't know how since we were
>>>working over a heterogeneous LAN with multiple OSs.
>>> Then I found out about Expect. I automated everything! My boss didn't
>>>like hearing that I was working on something else in order to get out of
>>>work, and I got tired of explaining it to him.
>>> Although I accomplished all the aspects of my duties, I was infamous
>>>for being the laziest person at work, and it showed (I made my job SO easy).
>>>I got a new boss after a while, and he hated me from the start and fired
>>>me soon after. Oh well, I guess my mentality didn't click with theirs.
>>> There are a lot of people like that: they believe life is putting
>>>in a hard day's work to get by. I hate that.
>>> So the point is, thank you for the wonderful 'Expect'. I bought
>>>your book and now I have the most recent version of it on my Linux system
>>>at home. Needless to say I'm looking for another job, though.

>> Thanks very much for your nice letter.  Sorry to hear about your

>Yeah, I'd be interested in hearing if you have a personal philosophy on

I'm glad you asked. My personal philosophy on this kind of thing is: Find someone really rich and marry them.
