A new game for idle minds. RULES: 1. I'll give you 3 seemingly unrelated clues. 2. You'll have to think laterally and connect these clues to a person, animal, bird or thing. 3. You can post your solution in the comments section. 4. The one who cracks the puzzle first gets one brownie point from me. 5. I will put out a thousand puzzles in the next one year. The person with the most number of brownie points will be crowned as the champ.

Ans. TOM HANKS/STEVEN SPIELBERG
Clue 1: Blue = NAVY = Both Hanks & Spielberg received the highest civilian award from the Navy for Saving Pvt Ryan
Clue 2: Speedster = CATCH ME IF YOU CAN = Another hanks - Spielberg movie.
Clue 3: JFK = THE TERMINAL, which was shot at JFK Airport. Again a Tom Hanks-Spielberg movie.
Ans. Frank Sinatra
Blue: Ol' Blue Eyes ==> his nickname
Speedster: He appeared posthumously for an ad for the Ford Thunderbird (and owned a special edition )
JFK: Frank Sinatra is supposed to have helped in JFK's Presidential bid.
good guesses. but the answer i have in mind links better with these clues.

Blue: Waterworld
Speedster: Dunno
JFK: Costner
My take on the TryLateral - Raymond Loewy
1) Blue - The color of postboxes in the US - Raymond Loewy designed the old USPS logo.
2) Speedster - Studebaker Speedster - Loewy designed logos and automobiles for Studebaker.
3) JFK - John. F. Kennedy - Loewy designed the livery for JFK's Air Force One. He also designed the five cent JFK commemorative stamp.
OK, who else is ready to join TA (TryLateralholics Anonymous)? :) Yesterday, I've never even heard of this guy Loewy. Today I think I know enough to write his biography.
the answer is Brett Lee.
1. blue -- blues -- he plays for the New South Wales Blues team.
2. speedster -- fast bowler
3. JFK -- Lee Harvey Oswald was
JFK's assasin -- Lee
small typo. it is assassin.
blue = jeans = lee
speedster = Jet - Jet Li
JFK - Lee harvey Oswald..
connection.. Lee/Li
wait...Blue could also be the band Blue = Lee Ryan then
TL - AIRLINES IN INDIA
BLUE = INDIGO
SPEEDSTER = JET
JFK = KINGFISHER
Blue - Bonnie Blue - Confederacy
Speedster - SPeed Star = Sandra Bullock married to Jesse James
JFK - earlier called Idlewild - song by Outcast
TL - Jesse James
tl - lance armstrong
blue - the wristband for prostate cancer he popularized, fashioned after the yellow livestrong ones that all college students wore (with no clue to what really it is!)
speedster - cycling record 7 tours or that he is a pace car driver
jfk - code named lancer by SS
