  1. I must say that I find it interesting that none of the three writers today talked about the suspicious behavior that coincided with the "accident." I mean we can't deny the fact that he was leaving his house at 2:30am after a major "American" family holiday and that his wife randomly had a golf club to smash his window and maybe even his face a little. How is this not interesting for this squeaky clean celebrity like Tiger Woods. I also find it interesting that all contributors today were males who all had similar opinions. Why did the details of the two women who have surfaced in the media allegedly claiming to have affairs with him not come up as part of their responses. Of course we will never know the truth but we sure as hell are having fun creating the truth in our heads.

  2. At the time I wrote my comments, I was not aware that there were any other women involved. They might not even have surfaced at that point. And they're entirely beside the point that I was trying to make. I had no judgment to offer with regard to Tiger Woods, his wife, or anybody else involved; my comments were offered with reference to the rest of us. I also didn't say I didn't find the situation interesting; of COURSE it's interesting. What I am saying is that it's nothing to be proud of to be interested -- that it's a form of Weltschmerz or Schadenfreude (look it up; why are the Germans so good at coming up with words for these conditions?) to be interested and we should be ashamed of that and fight it.
