Worst Person of the Week 7/27/10

OK folks, It's time for this weeks installment of Worst Person. Last week we had an epic battle between Rachel Uchetel and The Cast of Jersey Shore. As with everything it seems recently the cast won! This week a few new nominees. Some of which you might not be familiar with.

Melinda Dennehy - This 41 year old former teacher joins the ranks of the Hot for teacher crowd as yesterday she pleaded guilty to a charge she e-mailed nude photographs of herself to a 15-year-old student. And in the process is becoming a bit of an internet sensation like Debra Lefave. Apparently she was getting career advice from Mary Kay Letourneau. Shameful.

Andrew Brietbart - Andrew makes the list not only because he is a blowhard but because he posted an edited video of USDA employee Shirley Sherrod trying to defend the Tea Party movement by showing that the NAACP is actually racist. Ms. Sherrod was promptly fired and then when the whole context came out many apologies and back-tracking took place. Make sure you get it right the first time when it's this inflammatory Andrew.

Alvin Greene - The true accidental candidate from South Carolina who besides completely unknown, having little money, and apparently not too much common (or political) sense won SC's Democratic primary and will face incumbent Senator Jim DeMint in the fall. He makes the list this week for endorsing a rap song for his campaign that was meant to poke fun at him. If this guy can run it makes almost wish I had run for Senate when I lived in SC.

St. Louis Pigeons - No that's not the name of a sports team it's actually birds which in this case caused the cancellation of a Kings of Leon concert in St. Louis this past weekend after repeatedly pooping in bassist Jared Followill's mouth. YUCK! But worse than that fans only got to hear three songs. Something tells me that there is gonna be some pigeon-cide in St. Louis this week.

There are your nominees folks. Please vote in the poll and leave your comments on who you think this week's worst person is. I can't wait to read these comments!

(Just a side note. Worst Person of the Week will be on vacation with me next week and will return the following week. Maybe we will have to do a super sized version)

Roof Damage

The other part of our camping trip that I don't think I discussed on here was the damage we got in a windstorm while we were gone. We came home to find shingles blown off the roof and water damage on the interior of our master bedroom "popcorn' ceiling. The damage was not quite as extensive as this image I found on google but similar. I met with a contractor on Friday and he thinks to prevent it from happening again we need to have the entire roof replaced. *gulp* Since we don't have $7-9 Grand just laying around we quickly called our insurance company. Since I work in the insurance industry I am of course highly suspicious of insurance companies and just spoke with them. Of course they can't come and look until next week when I am up in NY. But it sounds like everything will be taken care of. Anxiety doing much better today than it was this weekend.
Anyone else ever had any roof/storm/shingle damage? Please tell me it all worked out OK.

Mel Gibson is a stupid, drunk, racist, misogynistic Pig....

But I see why he might be a little crazy... This Oksana Grigorieva is kind of hot. #Just Sayin'

Worst Person of the Week 7/20/10

OK Folks it is time once again to find out who the worst person of the week is. Last weeks run away winner was Mel Gibson who really had no contest. This week will probably be a bit more interesting. So here we go with this weeks nominees:

The Cast of Jersey Shore - Who is asking for more money? These guys are. As if MTV couldn't’t take a trip down to Wildwood and throw out a net and get the same cast. (or better) Add that to the fact that Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino is writing a self help book. (yes that is no typo) and these guys deserve a nomination here for WP.

Paris Hilton - Paris is ticked off at stories she was arrested AGAIN for possession of marijuana when in fact she was only just questioned and released. Imagine that Paris angry about media coverage. Yeesh. Paris is always WP worthy but getting detained for pot 2 times in less than 10 days is special even for her. Oh and as you can see to the left she was photographed topless this weekend too. Double Yeesh.

George Steinbrenner - A vote for George is more like a lifetime achievement award for one of the surliest meanest nastiest owners in all of professional sports. Yes he passed away last week leaving a nation of Yankee fans in mourning but that doesn't change history and turn him into a nice guy. I think George deserves some consideration and he probably would be proud of it.

Rachel Uchitel - Rachel is now having to go into celebrity rehab with Dr. Drew. For someone whose chief claim to fame is sleeping with Tiger Woods and then taking bribe money (a lot of it) not to blab about it to the press shouldn't your 15 minutes already be up? Of course not. She is now probably hooked on pills and needs rehab. Tick Tock Rachel Tick Tock.

There you have it folks. Lets here your comments and please vote in the poll for this Worst Person of the Week. Who should it be?
