Tiger and the Laws of Physics

It could be their healthy eating habits (I try), or it could be their father's DNA (more likely), but my kids are skinny. S-K-I-N-N-Y. When you turn them sideways they disappear. They're not emaciated. Nobody call C.P.S. I do feed them, you know.

Sure, being thin is a good thing in many ways: lower cholesterol, lower blood sugar and it sure helps the old blood pressure. It's no bed of roses, however. When you're cruisin' at Mach 2 backwards down a hill,

and a giant gust of wind picks you up and flips you over, like this,...

being thin as a rail isn't all it's cracked up to be. What do you say, Tiger?

Maybe a pre-sledding lesson on gravity and aerodynamics would have been helpful.

This One Almost Sent Me Into Labor

**Warning**This may not interest anyone who is not a Ragin' Cajuns fan, doesn't like football, has never cheered for an underdog, has never been to Louisiana, could not find Louisiana on a map or doesn't have an alma mater. Oh, and I know you Texas A&M fans will want to not watch. It could be painful. I am sad for you, but I will understand if you take a pass on it.

After finding this old goody, I am firmly convinced that youtube is omnipresent. I had just finished my Master's degree and was 800 months pregnant with The Butterfly when this historic event took place. How I didn't go into labor then and there, I'll never know.

Forgive my nostalgia and this one teensy cheer...Yea, Rouge! Yea, Blanc! Yea, Cajuns! Allons!
