You wouldn't have anything to write about without me..." "I know. It's true. That's the sad life of a codependent. My problem is being all wrapped up in [...]

The Long-Awaited Tiger Woods Post
Image credit: Photo by Stefano A on Flickr Licensed under Creative Commons "Is Tiger Woods a sex addict?" "What do you think about Tiger?" "Aren't you going to write about Tiger Woods?"
