Add in hush money, alimony and jewelry

In his press conference at the Masters, Tiger Woods apologized to his fellow golfers for the distraction he caused them while he was off. A lot of them were unable to concentrate because of all of the reporters asking “Who are you?”

At his press conference, Tiger Woods said he “missed the competition.” Nothing sharpens your skill like competing with 60 other golfers for the hot blonde in the 18th hole gallery.

One small stop for man

Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden, will host a White House summit on community colleges in the fall. Biden is a community college professor who is known to be a tough grader, so husband Joe was right again when he called it a “big F-ing deal.”

Police in England arrested a man who created an anti-tailgating flame-throwing device for his scooter. He was charged with possessing an object converted into a firearm and impersonating a Pinto.
