UPDATE -- We're told the Florida Highway Patrol went to Tiger's house this afternoon to talk to him about the accident -- but they were turned away by his wife, who said he was sleeping. The FHP plans to try and talk to Woods again tomorrow.

Celebrity Justice
Arnold Schwarzenegger: I'll Be Back Taxes

The United States government might have a bigger budget to work with -- if one bodybuilding governor would pay the back taxes it appears he never got around to paying.



According to documents filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Arnold Schwarzenegger owes the IRS $39,047 from 2004 and $40,016 from 2005.

In total the Guv owes $79,064.00 ... and as we all know, he's definitely not saving the money for rainy day traffic violations.

An official at the L.A. County Recorder's Office tells TMZ their system shows the lien is still active.

Calls to Arnold's office have not been returned.

15,000 More Reasons to Hate Michael Lohan

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Michael has racked up $15,100 in unpaid child support to Dina for their three minor children: Aliana, Michael Jr. and Dakota Lohan.

Now how about this horrible scenario: If Michael profited off those audio tapes he released of Lindsay's lowest moments, he could actually pay off his child support with money he made from exploiting one of his children.

Lamar Odom's House -- Now with Furniture!

Lamar Odom hasn't been able to move his $2.39 million pad, so he gave it a makeover to help sell it.



We're told Lamar wants to move the Manhattan Beach house ASAP -- so he cut the realtor a check to get the staging done it to make it more presentable. Lamar and his new wife Khloe just threw down a chunk of change on a place in Tarzana -- a cool $3.995 million.

BTW -- the furniture doesn't even come with the house. For $2.39 mil, you'd think he'd throw in a sofa at least.
