(Newser) – Tiger Woods' mother-in-law seems to be recovered from the episode that saw her rushed to the hospital last night. Barbro Holmberg has been released and is resting at one of Tiger's houses. She went out to dinner last night with daughter Elin Nordegren and Elin's twin sister, then woke in the middle of the night with stomach discomfort, TMZ reports.

The MIL's name is just one vowel short of the ill-fated racehorse Barbaro. Strange coinkydink.

Call me skeptical but (a) she just found out her daughter's husband has been dating 10 other women. And (b) food poisoning? Hmm. When they go "out to eat" they must eat at the same cheap fast food drive-thru's as the rest of us... And (c) How well is fabricating and inventing been working so far as a family strategy?... Oh well, whatever, carry on...

Yeah, the big difference between the two is that if Elin plays her cards right, she'll be at least $80 million ahead of her twin.
