    I was engaged once many moons ago. It didn’t take.

    After many years of ups and downs, my long-term girlfriend at the time and I had grown apart. It happens.

    But at least we didn’t send out wedding invitations. (I shudder at the thought.)

    The same cannot be said for professional golfer Rory McIlroy and his former fiancée Caroline Wozniacki.

    The two high-profile athletes were engaged, sent out wedding invitations, probably paid a pretty penny for them considering their salaries, then days later mutually decided to break off the engagement. Good thing guests hadn’t already booked their flights.

    Amen to that. Love the argument that joint return tax rates vs. single tax rates make up for the hit of that special person in your life takes. Right.

    He won in Europe this weekend. Maybe love and golf don't mix.

    It was actually an impressive win considering, Rag. He was pretty dialed in.

    I didn't mean to demean what the kid was going through as if it was unimportant. I was just making a point that we don't need to hear what goes on in these people's personal lives ad naseum.
