Tiger Woods and Barack Obama on the cover of Golf Digest

The headline says it all: 10 tips Obama can take from Tiger. I’m not sure what these tips are, but here are some that would be useful if Barack Obama starts turning into Bill Clinton.

1. Don’t leave a message on your mistress’ voicemail asking her to remove her name, just in case your wife calls. You know this will make its way onto TMZ.

Tiger Woods doesn’t owe us an apology

It bothers me when people get wrapped up in the private lives of celebrities, and it bothers me almost as much when these celebrities feel the need to issue an apology. Tiger Woods is the latest celebrity to fall into this trap. He released this statement yesterday:
