Not really interested in Tiger Woods, but here's my opinion on the rest... I cannot imagine a greater and more fulfilling pleasure in this life than enjoying intimacy with the woman you're crazy about and that you know is crazy about you. And it's so much more than 10 to 20 min. of gratifying mechanics, it begins with playful morning flirting to the moment of greatest anticipation. To quote myself from an earlier thread (since at least one person appreciated it)... "A good classic rock song...gives you the warm fuzzies, like when your favorite girl falls asleep on your chest in a naked curled-up sweaty spent mess. Sleep comes quickly and deeply." If fate is kind (and with such an early start), we'll both go to our graves with a "body count" of one. Variety and novelty can be had even with the same person, and for a lifetime I think, as long as you both stay loving and invested in keeping the relationship fun and interesting. Also, I've never tired of the same seafood I grew up eating, nor of my favorite songs and movies, so maybe mental wiring and personality are part of remaining satisfied with spicy crayfish tail (and lobster, the seafood equivalent to prime rib).

Like you alluded to, not everyone is "hardwired" the same way and that's fine. For some people the idea of being with only person for their entire adult life just doesn't compute. It's not in their DNA.

The media hype is way over the top, as expected. Why so much coverage you ask? Because mouse clicks equal revenue streams. Everyone knows that.
That being said, the guy is just a human being. I hope he is going to be oaky. The hype about Tiger has always been there. Yes, it never went away.

Says the man hater...google her.
In this day and age, most of these media tools are inserting their agenda(s) into all their reporting. Yes, unless you are a perfect person, there is such a thing as an accident.
Not defending Woods at all, just defending unbiased truth.

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet. I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

The New car he was driving. It must have been above his ability to drive. https://www.autoblog.com/2021/02/24/genesis-gv80-tiger-woods/ 59 now going 60. Have not had a car accident since I was 17 driving a 72 AMC Gremlin, crappy brakes only 7 inch drums in front. Heard many complaints about them.

Idle speculation, but the lack of braking suggests distraction to me. You don't smash through a 'welcome to wherever' sign if you are watching the road, while also not hitting the brakes.
It's also one of the hazards of operating an unfamiliar vehicle. Because every knob and switch location is foreign, simple things you can do in your everyday vehicle are simple, automatic and you don't even need to look. In a strange vehicle this isn't the case. Again, no idea what actually caused this, and I think that will remain the case regardless of the final official version, but my money's on he was heads-down when he left the road.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

The puzzling thing to me is, and pardon me if it's been mentioned, the fact that they announced within days that no charges will be filed even though there were no skid marks. Impairment, distraction, or mechanical failure are the only reasons I can think of for a lack of skid marks, given what apparently happened. And two out of the three of those are absolutely chargeable.
SALUTE TO ALL!
