Fly My Ideas

The logo of The Amazing Race.  “You are team number one!” Yes, I’m talking about The Amazing Race, the race around the world. The show is already more than ten years old and still standing strong as one of my favorite show. In the latest season-Season 21, a team has the chance to win $2 million, that’s a first in the series history. Teams racing across the world, encounter many challengers, enduring the different weather in different countries, fighting to win the enormous prize money that is offered.

A high-speed bullet train has been planned to transport passengers from the planned airport to the city center in 30 minutes time. The size of the airport is almost 7.5km each side.

I watched the first full debate between two US Presidential candidates for the upcoming US Presidential Election yesterday via youtube. A debate about policies, leadership and new, collective ideas between the current President, The Democratic Party representative-Barack Obama and former Massachusetts governor, The Republican Party candidate-Mitt Romney. They will be debating again on October 16 at New York and October 22 at Florida.  There’s another debate between their running mates which is the vice-presidency debate on October 11, between Joe Biden (Current Vice President, Democratic candidate) and Paul Ryan (Congressman, Republican candidate).

But, to be honest, I thought Romney was the one who
