For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Open fractures of his right tibia and fibula. They inserted rods and pins. Sounds like he may have developed compartment syndrome, too.

quote:

"Mr Woods suffered significant orthopaedic injuries to his right lower extremity that were treated during emergency surgery," he said.

"Communicated open fractures affecting both the upper and lower portions of the tibia and fibula bones were stabilised by inserting a rod into the tibia.

"Trauma to the muscle and soft-tissue of the leg required surgical release of the covering of the muscles to relieve pressure due to swelling."

BREAKING: Eldrick “Tiger” Woods died today after flipping a 2002 Club Car at Trump National. Toxicology reports show he was under the influence of Ambien, Xanax, Vicodin, THC, and a couple of Miller Lites, but the ultimate cause of death was an overdose of crack cocaine.

There are lots of rich celebrities that are also car guys who use cool/interesting/old cars as daily drivers, but my guess is that if you're driving around in a bland Hyundai SUV you probably don't fall into the "automotive enthusiast" caregory, in which case yeah, just get a personal driver.

what exactly do you think a fender bender is, because it is not a single-vehicle accident where you go careening off the road and flip your vehicle without ever applying the brakes

that is not a "normal thing" to "happen"

It's obviously possible to fall asleep at the wheel without drugs being involved, and I've known people who've been in some pretty horrific crashes as a result--two barely had a scratch, and one died. With Tiger's previous multi-drug DUI and all the back surgeries he's had over the years though, it's pretty loving normal to think pain pills were likely involved.
