Sunday was the first time I watched golf for 4 hours and it was a performance to remember. Going into the 18th Tiger Woods was down 1 stroke and faced a putt to force a playoff with Rocco Mediate. Tiger nails the putt and celebrates with a double fist pump as the crowd goes in an uproar.
It was a show of mental toughness from both players as Tiger struggled at times playing with an injured knee and Mediate played on consistently not folding under pressure to maintain the lead. Especially in Tiger’s case, an injured knee that doctors recommended that he not play on as he winced and limped throughout the 2008 US Open. Playing through the pain Tiger forced a 18 hole playoff on Sunday even though he lost the lead he gained the previous day with an amazing eagle putt on the 18th, starting the day with a bogey and double bogey in the first 2 holes. Losing the lead and trailing through the day all hopped up on pain pills, losing was not an option for Tiger.
Enduring the pain he would have play another holes in pain with every step he took. Tiger continued to play as his mental toughness was tested again going into the 18th down one stroke. Can he do it yet again? Of course he can, he’s Tiger! Would you ever doubt his mental toughness like the Nike commercial that played throughout the tournament explaining how there’s no one as mentally tough as Tiger and it’s true. Yet again he’s able to tie Mediate in the 18th and force a sudden death.
Rocco showed stones in the 2008 US Open battling Tiger. When Tiger isn’t playing in a tournament the field usually shoots one shot better and Rocco wasn’t phased by it playing consistently and he constantly stated how much fun he was having.

Tiger has been on a tear this year, more dominant and focused than ever. Even with a bum knee he can still beat the best in the world. You got to give props to Rocco Mediate too, with the performance he had. Mediate continued to play great in a battle with the greatest player in the world and took it to a playoff and 1 sudden death hole. Unfortunately Mediate struggled in the first sudden death hole and Tiger was hoisting the US Open trophy once again.
Through adversity there was a test of physical and mental endurance endured by both players. In ways mental toughness is just as important with Pure Adapt as in the dog fight of a battle for the 2008 US Open. We’re in it for the long term as we constantly evaluate where we are as a company with limited man power growing the company with the 4 of us. The to do list doesn’t end and we must push through until we get to that break point and our company is starting to mature and more profitable. I am confident that we’ve made good decisions and implemented the right processes to get to where we get to. We will press on and continuously push our company to the next level, I have no doubt about that.

A big part of my role with the company right now has been working on producing videos for Tastefully Driven and Detailed Image. It’s been one hell of a frustrating learning experience getting good at producing high quality videos that look good on the Internet. I’ve finally reached the point of perfecting the process and getting more efficient at it.
Now I want to share some of the videos that we’ve produced at Tastefully Driven and Detailed Image.
The first Video I want to show is my work out video debut of me demonstrating exercises with the Altus Chin Up Bar.

I want to give a quick update on what’s going on and talk about the new Daily Specials feature on DetailedImage.com.
About a week ago I wrote my monthly post about a charity that I will donate to called “My Monthly Charity (insert month and year)” and it was about the American Red Cross for May 2008. I was privileged enough to have someone from the Red Cross comment on my blog and get a link to my blog from the Red Cross homepage with my post (see screen shot below). WOW it’s pretty sweet to get a link from the Red Cross and I’m still amazed. I want to thank everyone that has taken interest in my blog and the Red Cross needs all the help then can get due to the recent catastrophic events in different parts of the world.
Detailed Image Daily Specials
This week we launched a cool new feature on Detailed Image where we put one detailing product on sale everyday called our Daily Special. This product will be featured on the Detailed Image homepage at very nice discounted price for one day only. If you’re looking for a great deal on detailing supplies check the Detailed Image homepage regularly or register to receive email notification of the Daily Special. For example here’s a screen shot of todays Daily Special:

I also got my new laptop this week and it’s made life a little bit easier. My old laptop just couldn’t handle everything very efficiently anymore and there’s a few things that need to be fixed on it. It’s a burned a small hole in my pocket it’s totally worth it. That brings me to the another topic, I feel like I can never catch up and save money. I feel like every time I get to the point where I can consistently put some money away a huge expensive hits me. It’s like I got all my finances under control then I need new brakes for my car ($600), now it’s time for a new laptop ($1000+), car inspection with wipers ($48) with the rising cost of gas I feel like I’m never going to be able to save money. It just seems like there’s a major expense every couple of months. Off that topic I’m excited for summer and everything we got going with Pure Adapt. Lastly George has started up his blog again check it out.
