The Torment of Working in Today's World

There are too many television shows that are into reality game show (such as: Raven, Wipe Out, Survivor, Amazing Race, Fear factor, etc) where there are too much action, drama, and sports combined. The contestants really do get hurt and suffer just to win millions of dollars. While other individuals who cannot suffer any longer would rather try their luck by buying tickets from the lotto or lottery. Everything is just pure luck when you're good with numbers.

While the really good clean fun winning is using your creativity with in-born talents. Being a prodigy for one thing in the arts of music, science and some people have their luck by acquiring wealth through inheritance.

So which one should you choose to gain wealth in this world?

HEALTH IS WEALTH. That alone is a sure way that you are lucky when you are at best of your health. Happy, healthy and wise.

Then I heard such thing as bull. What? .........oO)))))

From Sidney to the Broken Hill to the outback of Australia mining site to the train station and then ride to the airport for the next departure to TOKYO, JAPAN. Two airlines to choose from: Cathay pacific or Qantas. The Cathay pacific was delayed in HK airport for reasons unknown. Maybe for re-fuel. The Cathay pacific arrived at 7:20 AM while the Qantas airline arrived at 6:15 AM for Tokyo.

Clue envelope station at the Shrine. Task I: To get their car from the building where they have to push buttons from a vending machine sort of featured like an elevator of some kind. Then the car that was chosen come out from the building. Wow that's innovative. Instead of you going up the building, you can have the car come out from the rotation station.

Contestants drive through the streets of Tokyo from the city to the ancient shrine or temple. In that shrine they have to face rigorous training wearing traditional costume. A Japanese kimono costume. Then they have to "form" a Yabusame ritual " which is a road block. First FORM then ride the mechanical spinning wooden bull. The contestants have to aim their bow and arrow at the diamond wooden shape board and hit it. After that task they will receive the next clue card. The rule is very strict. I think it is fun and very challenging.

Cara and Jaime had an accident on the road. Good that their vehicle was equipped with air bags. Their car's sideview mirror was hit and got broken. They reported the accident to the police.

TASK II : Japanese Rituals Detour ( Choosing the Purification process or Frog Search at the field of mud or clay).

In Purification process which is a Shinto rite the contestants have to light incense in front of the shrine made of hut. Praying and chanting followed then moved on to the cold rushing water then to the water falls. Not good for kids with soft fontanels. The water is very cold which the contestants managed to bear it with courage. Ron and Christina, then the Globetrotters Flight time and Big easy tried this ritual holding unto a cane. After the rituals or rite is done the Globetrotters left and took their clothes and bags and fled the site in a hurry. Christina's bag was missing and they kept on looking for it only to find it inside the hut where Ron changed his costume.

The rest of the contestants tried the search for the frog in the muddy field where the Japs keep throwing balls of mud to them. probably the frogs inside those mud. Looks like it was fun and good for kids though it gets so boring when the clock starts ticking and they cannot get hold of the frog. It was sort of fun until you see them like being torment and it becomes a torture. Only to find out that the frog is a toy not a live frog.

Zev and Justin finished first and they were in a hurry again to report for Phil Keoughan at the landing site monument of Commodore Perry which is the final Pit Stop for that leg of the game.
While others took a shower first before reporting to the Pit stop.

In order of arrival:

1. Zev and Justin - won Travelocity's travel to Costa Rica.
2. Gary and Mallory
3. Globetrotters
4. Ron and Christina - complained about the Globetrotters > to be given 30 minutes penalty
5. Kisha and Jen
6. Cowboys
7. Kent and Vyxin
8. Margie and Luke
9. Jaime and Cara
10. Mel and Mike were eliminated they were trembling in cold looks like they were sick. Not a good sight to watch though it was like a torture of some kind.

This race is really not good for old people over 50. Why they have to endure those tasks? What is the truth about this game?

That in order to win MILLION DOLLARS you cannot just get it by sitting down doing nothing. That's what it is. Moral lesson.

While we sit down here and do our computer works we are bombarded with laser flares and radiation hitting us on our face and chest.





Okay let me tell you what happened at the Amazing Race Episode 3 opf the Unfinished Business.
