The Knucklehead of the Year award- Generic

Time to give out our second Knucklehead of the Year award. This time it is the General or Generic category. These are usually ordinary people who do some of the most idiotic things.

Our six nominees are

Adrian Apgar
Kris and Sarah Everson
Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling
Kimberly Riordan
Mr. Tombe
Andrew Tilley

Before giving out the award, we have the following comments from the judges.

James Joyner said- "Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling not really 2006 knuckeheads.
Don't really care about the others."

John in Carolina also wrote for Lay and Skilling saying "White collar crooks are always with us; only the worst steal other peoples' pensions."

Mr C from Peer Review FL-
1 Adrian Agpar alligator Bait

2 Kris and Sarah Everson are a few short

3 Andrew Tilley failure to launch

Greta makes me laugh with the following-

1. The alligator couldn't say no to his "crack"
2. My wife the goat - sounds like a great joke - why goats make good wives
3. Light this!

Doyle said why she voted for Andrew Tilley- "By comparison to Mr. Tilley, all the other nominees fizzle out."

Don Surber labeled Mr. Tilley a 'Rocket Scientist'

The generic vote was a close one. Adrian Apgar finishing just two points behind the winner.....

Andrew Tilley!

Mr Tilley joins The New York Times as 2006 Knucklehead of the Year award finalists. Please come back tomorrow to see who our next finalist is. Merry Christmas.
