Before I explain where I have been and whats  happening, I have to show you this video.

I. LOVE. IT. Now, I am not endorsing E*Trade, but someone got something right!  The ad is relevant to the times. Check. I laughed. Check. I remembered the product. Check. Check.

Tiger credits Tom Cruise and Scientology for his incredible, come from behind (twice), double play-off US Open win against the lovable underdog, Rocco Mediate. Yes. It’s true. Tiger has been secretly studying and training at a Scientology school in California. Tiger turned to Scientology to alleviate the incredible pain that comes with being so fabulously rich. Scientology has solved this problem.

Here’s the rub. At a Scientology (Celebrity) family picnic, Tiger trashed his knee in a disastrous accident during a three-legged race with partner Tom Cruise. The pair violently collided into the heftier John Travolta and Kristie Alley. With a torn ACL, Tiger and Tom still got up and won the race. Incredible.

My life is empty

May 18, 2008

Since Tiger’s departure from the golf scene and his rumoured retirement, my life is now empty. Seriously. I don’t watch golf anymore. Check that. I don’t watch sports anymore. Lately, I have noticed that my favourite after round nutrition, beer and wings, have lost their flavour.

In fact everything about me is changing. I have been spending less time in my den of solitude and more time gardening, walking my dog and generally fixing things around the house. I am reading books, having conversations and starting to understand my feelings. Really. It’s true.

The US Open is around the corner. Please Tiger. Come back. Only you can save me.
