Think you're Hollywood material?

Hello,

My name is Gaby Wilson. I'm a Casting Producer for ABC's Primetime show; "Wife Swap."
We're currently into our fourth season at the moment and we're looking for one-of-a-kind families with plenty of personality.
Specifically, we're looking for families that love the game of golf! If your life revolves around getting to a tee time, golf lesson, or driving range and sharing golf with your family, and you've always thought your family was meant for TV, I want to hear from you! In addition, please feel free to forward this to any families you think would be interested in taking part in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
In case you are unfamiliar with the show, the premise of Wife Swap is to take two different families and have the moms switch places to experience how another family lives. Half of the week, mom lives the life of the family she is staying with. Then she introduces a "rule change" where she implements rules and activities that are important to her family. It's a positive experience for people to not only learn but teach about other families and other ways of life.

Wife Swap airs on Disney owned ABC television on Wednesdays at 8 pm- the family hour!

Requirements: Each family must consist of two parents and at least one child between 7 and 17 and should reside in the continental U.S. (There may be other children living in the home who are older or younger than the required age…as long as one child is in the required age range.)
Participating in the show is a very unique experience that can be life changing for everyone. In addition, each family that tapes an episode of Wife Swap receives $20,000 as compensation for their time. Anyone who refers a family that appears on our program receives $1000 as a 'thank you' from us.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me! If you're interested in learning more, please include your contact information.

The fist pump

Tiger has become a verb in our society...a car salesman, making a sale, goes to the bosses office...punches his fist into the air and says: "I Tiger-ed him". Golfers of every walk, live for the moment on the golf course when they can sink that putt and do the 'Tiger fist-pump'.

Now kids have a chance to pump their fists.

The Tiger Woods Foundation has a contest for kids 13-18 to submit a short video, or text essay for the Fist Pump Challenge. The foundation is giving away great kid-rated loot (for those that can put their stories of attaining goals on video or text) by selecting a few of them on the last day of every month all this year, and if you live in Orange County or Washington DC...soon, you may be eligible for an Earl Woods Foundation Scholarship.

The Tiger Woods Foundation has been instrumental in helping millions of kids across the country define and reach their goals through scholarships, grants and other golf related activities...

...now that's worthy of a fist pump!


Thanks for reading. Keep it in the short-grass,

Whether you are looking for tennis or lacrosse equipment, make sure you get the top of the line. From the golf carts to the golf clubs, you golf vacations should go perfect. You can also throw in a bit of basketball equipment for some variation.

If you win...should you be clean-shaven?

It's good to be a golf-fan...that shaves.

Gillette...maker of the Gillette Fusion Razor has the latest entrant of what is a killer sweepstakes!
I'm sure you've seen the Gillette Champion's commercial's on TV featuring Tiger Woods, Roger Federer and Theirry Henry...well, now these well-shaven boys are part of the razors' online push with interviews (scroll to the bottom of my site to see Tigers' interview), downloads, and more.

The sweepstakes ends February 29th 2008. Grand prize is (and this is from the contest rules section): a 3-day/2-night trip for 2 to a sponsor-specified location (within the contiguous 48 United States) for a golf lesson with legendary golf coach, Hank Haney. Prize includes round-trip coach air transportation for winner and guest from major airport nearest winner’s home, hotel accommodations (one room, double occupancy), airport and hotel room taxes, a $300 stipend towards ground transportation, and 1 golf lesson with Hank Haney (subject to his availability).

If you don't win the big one...there are 2,357 instant win prizes so you might get lucky.

While you're on the site, you might check out the how-to's on shaving. Tiger says the #1 rule is to soak...

...but is he talking about shaving or Woody Austin?

Good luck!
