Greg Norman Leads The Open Championship

At 53, Greg Norman is shockingly in the lead at the British Open at Royal Birkdale.  In an interview, Jim Hubert asked him if he felt compelled to catch up to new wife Chris Everet’s  tennis majors.  Jim, she’s won 18; he has 2.  Silly question.

A better question might be:  “Greg how can you play so well after just handing over $103 million to your ex-wife?” (more…)

Apparently, Sally is a feminist; I liked the way she thinks through, and struggles, with the problem.  I’m not a feminist (can a guy even be one?) and would not immediately say I appreciate feminism given the stereotypical  images it conjures up.  (more…)

It’s good that bored people have a lot of company; at least they’re not bored and lonely. 

But the bored people have it good.  A subset of the “I’m bored” sect trump their counterparts by saying “I’m so bored.”  (more…)

The title of the email was “Rent or Own”.  It’s too good not to be shared!

The math on the Paul  McCartney-Heather Mills divorce is as follows:

After  5 years of marriage, he paid her $49 million. Assuming he got sex every  night during their 5 year relationship (which would NOT have happened!) it  ended up costing him $26,849 per time.  (more…)

Excuse Me? 

In our discussions, a few of the gals mentioned that they had had drunk sex a few times that they could scarcely remember.  So, if the guy, presumably also drunk, does not get the girl to sign the sexual consent form, can he then be accused of rape?  Or, better yet, could he accuse her of rape?  (more…)
