Georgina, it's not like I have full control over every slight change of topic this thread takes. I'm not the only one contributing, and I'll be damned if I'm going to force others to stay on a narrow and pretty well discussed topic without allowing them to discuss even related things.

On another note, I may not respect Tiger as a person (or I might, I've never met him), but damn if he isn't a good golfer. Let him play golf, that's all I want to see...

There are people in this world that will call you sexist if you try to help out a lady lifting her luggage they will accuse you of being a man that considers women weak and timid you know, the FEMINISTS these type of people are so frustrating to deal with these people never see the difference between men and women and one day they will probably demand to see boxing matches between men and women they are too ignorant to realize that they are not helping women by spreading their views but actually doing the opposite.
