How Do You Spell Daytona

Our son loves playing racing games and watching racing sports. Currently his favorite is the first season of the Bullrun Season 1 which he watches on DVD. He watched the whole season twice already ;)

So when we were having our Memory Drill games yesterday with two of my students, I was surprised he misspelled “Daytona” when he himself associated the word/place with “Nascar” (yes, where we see those Nascar jackets with a lot of colorful logos) when one of the boys he was having the drills with asked what Daytona is. (The word in the drill was Dayton, actually)

Frankly, I was disappointed when all of them misspelled Daytona since this is one of the racing games they can see in the arcades.

When I reminded them that they all said “Ay, tama!” (That’s right!) Yeah right :D

BMW K1200R

Presenting the BMW K1200R:

This motorcycle can be seen in the movie Resident Evil 3.

Read the specifications here.

Watch a video here.

Of course, this bike is uber expensive, being half a million in Philippine peso, without the tax and other financial obligations that needs to be paid when this is purchased. Maybe the overall price would be like a million pesos, enough to buy n AUV or Asian Utility Vehicle that can sit up to 9 people.

But when one thinks about the raw power, money is not an issue. If there is money to burn than just the wheels, that is  :)
