Tiger hosts <\/span>a talk show program<span style=\"font-family: arial;\"> in Vegas. He said he was going to send me a copy of one of his programs [a call in with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;\">Elvis<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">!] and a t-shirt. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Today the package arrived. It contained a nice workout t-shirt, a very nice golf hat, a soundtrack album [?] that he produced [!], and a copy of his call in show with Elvis. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">So I listened to the call-in with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;\">Elvis<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">. Funny and strange. I listened to the soundtrack for &#8220;Puckhead&#8221; which is a Tigar Vidmar production. It was an ecclectic mix of everything. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;\">Bob Dylan, Louis Armstrong,. Gene Autry, Dean Martin, The Mighty Mouse Theme song<\/span> and more are on it. I&#8217;ve listened to it twice! LOL!
