Abandoned
I can't help but feel sorry for Tiger Woods. Everyone wanted a piece of before the scandal. Now everyone has abandoned him. After squeezing every dollar they could get out of his popularity, they're dropping him like a hot potato. I don't think Tiger deserves to be treated this way. He made the PGA big. The sports of gold never had it so good. If ever Tiger overcomes this forgettable phase of his life, I hope he rejects every predator that comes his way. He should learn from this experience.
The sad reality is that he was exploited by everyone including his wife. I'm still a big fan no matter what. I hope hhim well.

Surprise
I bought my wife new shoes. She has always wanted a pair of boots. I wanted to surprise her. I know her size so I went ahead and ordered a pair of fergie shoes online. I chose the style she wanted. It's a late birthday present for her. I addressed the package to her and she'll be surprised when it finally arrives. I'm pretty sure she'll love it. Chalk one up for me.

Trick or Treat
Our village annually hosts Trick or Treat for the kids in our community. Every homeowner tries his best to make his house as "scary" as possible. We put up some of the best Halloween decorations you can find. Every year, the kids really look forward to seeing what we have in store for them. They love both the decorations and the goodies we give them. This year, I'll try to outdo myself. I'll make sure that my house will have the best decorations in our village.

Phil. Dragon Boat Team Wins Gold
The refused to fund the Phil. Dragon boat team in their qiest to defend their world championship on Tampa, Florida. Private entities were able to raise enough funds to get them there. They just won the gold in the 1000m race. They will be competing in four more events. The Philippine Sports Commission refused to recognize the Phil. Dragon boat Federation despite its international successes. I would attribute it to politics again. The Phil. team once again showed that despite lacking government support, they can be successful.
I hate it when politics and arrogance dictates the direction of sports. There are very few sports wherein the Filipino athlete can excel. We have to determine these and concentrate the funding and support for these sports. Unfortunately, the PSC refuses to recognize this. I thought the new officials would know what to do because they are former athletes. I was wrong.
To the Phil. Dragon boat team, congratulations. I look forward to your success in the events to come.

Wifey's Hobby
I tagged along with my wife the other day. She was picking up her order of lucite beads. She's been jewelry crafting for several years now. She's giving them away as presents for her friends and our children's teachers for Christmas. This is just one of the many hobbies she enjoys. Our daughter has taken after her and she's into it as well. Every piece she makes is a true labor of love.
Can't Get Enough
I treat insurance as an investment. Every savings I have, I invest in it. It's not simply an investment but a security for my family. Either way, I'm a winner. I don't work hard for myself, I work so my family can have a good life. I have been sent several term life insurance quotes. I will of course be studying them carefully and choose the one that I will benefit from the most. This one investment I can't get enough of.
Deer Hunter
On a trip to Canada, I got to go hunting. My guide was a seasoned deer hunter and knew the mountain trails very well. I was adamant to shot anything really. Near a stream, we hunkered down in a hide he used hundreds of times. A young stag soon came into sight and drank from the stream. I struggled to raise my Remington with a barska scope. He knew I can't do it and took the shot himself. We had venison steak that evening. I ate a lot as he grinned at me. I'm better at eating than shooting.
