Golfer Tiger Woods was seriously injured today in a car accident. Woods was alone in his car about 2:30 this morning driving near his home in Windermere Florida.

Lou Dobbs of CNN fame announced yesterday on his television program that he was leaving the network effective immediately.
Nobody really knows yet if he was pushed out, or if he left on his own accord. His contract was not set to expire until next year.
Recently, CNN has dropped to last place among all cable news networks, and some insiders feel that Lou was alienating the younger viewers.
Lou's rants about immigration, healthcare, war and politics seem to come across to younger viewers as if they were listening to their own fathers rant at the dinner table after a hard day at work.
Dobbs is a legacy CNN personality, starting under Ted Turner and riding the wave since the inception of the network. With the exception of a brief absence to start Space.com, Dobbs has had a show in some fashion or another since the early days.
I won't miss him. Lou was one of the reasons I stopped watching CNN. Another reason was Wolf Blitzer. I finally grew tired of his monotone voice and personality. When they paired him with Jack Cafferty I felt like I was watching two curmudgeons complaining about everything in the world. There was not one positive, happy, hopeful word from them - ever.
A decision on who will replace Dobbs is expected to be announced Thursday.
The video below is Dobbs exit speech. I suspect we will see him again someday, and then I will stop watching him there also.
I don't know if any of you happened to see the Jimmy Fallon Show last night. The musical guest was Yoko Ono and The Plastic Ono Band with guitar lead by her son Sean Lennon.
Wow, all I can say is this woman sucks as a musician. I have never really liked her, but last night was beyond bad - I was actually embarrassed for her, the band and Jimmy Fallon.
Ono grunted out "Waiting For The D Train". Any really, grunt is giving her too much credit. The song basically consisted of grunts, wails, yells and rhythmic groans.
She seemed to always be singing flat - if you can grunt flat, and I could not understand one word.
I suppose she thinks it is some kind of interpretative singing, but really - it sucked. While the video below is not from the Jimmy Fallon Show, it is a live performance of the same song.
Mariah Carey got a little carried away at the Palm Springs International Film Festival awards Tuesday Night.
