Thanksgiving. Tiger, White House Party Crashers and Grammy

Hey everyone, how was your Thanksgiving weekend? Mine was good and fun...the day after Thanksgiving I went shopping. Who would be crazy enough to get up at 4am and hunt for some good bargains? I found a coat, jogging pants, jogging top, some socks and a pair of pants. It was good.

Now...My thoughts on the Tiger Woods scandal.
When I first heard that Tiger Woods was involved in a car accident last Friday, I thought "Oh please not again...a celebrity has passed away." He had a slight injury when his wife busted his car window with a golf club to bail him out of the car. Woods got a citation from the Florida State Police for drunk driving so he has to pay for that trouble. The last few days there have been reports that Tiger had been cheating on his wife with other women. Of course, I know that those allegations are not true. Let's hope that Tiger won't get in trouble with his wife because that will be a devastating blow to his billion dollar empire. The scandal has not put his endorsement deals in jeopardy which may be a good thing. The last athlete who was involved in a sex scandal--Kobe Bryant--lost many of his endorsement deals. Now, he is a changed man--his team, the Los Angeles Lakers won the NBA championship in 2009. I hope things will get better for Tiger so he can get back on the golf course and wow us with his golf playing.

I've been shocked by the news of a couple who want their own reality show crashing a dinner party at the White House. They were not on the invite list and sneaked past security. The Secret Service should have handled the situation and turned them away. The couple got in anyway and hobnobbed with the President. The couple should be arrested and charged with trespassing and locked away in jail to teach them the error of their ways. The couple's dreams of getting their own reality show should be shattered to smithereens.
