That Was the Week That Was—In Blogs

So, have you been following this Tiger Woods stuff? I started to about three minutes ago.

The reality is I don’t really care, but I found an interesting post on The Huffington Post stating that Tiger may be trying to cover up his alleged affair with Rachel Uchiter by throwing money at her—to the tune of $1 million. Why Tiger? To keep your private life private? Really, I think it’s a little late for that but let’s hope your “third leg” doesn’t hurt your golf swing as I enjoy watching you play golf on the teevee.

No, sorry, kidding, Tiger. I never watch you or anyone play golf on the teevee.

The Cincinnati Nation is reporting that the Great American Tower downtown has reached the 41^st and final floor as far as the concrete work, so it looks like fairly soon now we’ll have more office space downtown which is just what we need as it’s so difficult to find office space downtown.

Ha! I continue to be such a kidder this morning.

Do you wish you could skip the entire month of December, forget about the holidays and just make it January, 2010 already? I hear ya, and it seems like there are a lot of good books coming out at the first of the year. Bookselling This Week fills us in.

Speaking of books, C.A. MacConnell tells us that draft #10 of her novel is in the oven. I don’t understand this. One should never put one’s work in progress—especially a novel—in the oven as it may burn. Suggestion, C.A., keep that oven temperature at 350 degrees and keep the baking to less than two hours.

Perhaps not everyone is looking forward to next year. Those working for The Cincinnati Enquirer can probably expect more furloughs. Kevin Osborne at The Daily Beat gives us some details.

And finally, Wonkette has found out what Jesus is wearing and eating. He’s wearing a snuggie while eating nachos from a freedom tray.

I find this a bit shocking. I always thought Jesus was a Skyline Chili fan.
