Crazy Women/Greed

So what the hell is in the water this week?!?

First there is Lisa Nowak (http://tinyurl.com/2osrym) going off the deep end over some dipshit co-astronaut and blowing it for every little girl who wanted to be like here. WTF is with that? Like my friend with the PhD said: "Ain't no joystick in the world worth all that!" This from a woman who was contemplating jumping Stedman Graham when she met him at a book signing this week. Point is, I don't know that many FAMILY MEMBERS I would put a diaper on so I could drive cross-country to get to faster, let along some man.

So now you have a HIGH profile woman who served as a role model for all the girls who are interested in science and space--including my daughter--who went looking for Colleen Shipman ( http://tinyurl.com/3c6u9c ) to kill her over fellow astronaut Bill Oefelein ( http://tinyurl.com/2tklhf ). EWWW! Neither one of them is particularly attractive, and Nowak is a very pretty woman. A very pretty MARRIED (although just separated) woman with three kids!!!

Then they let her out on $15000 bond and an ankle bracelet? Honey, if I went looking for someone with the arsenal she had, I wouldn't be in jail. I'd be UNDER it. Rope, duct tape, pepper spray, a sledge hammer, a knife, garbage bags... Not the usual emergency car kit, by any means. Nowak DID use the pepper spray, too, so there was evidence that she knew exactly what she was up to. But her lawyer is claiming she has PTSD over the Columbia disaster. BULLSHIT! The woman had a crush on her co-worker and was jealous because he was looking at other women. End of story!

So now she has no career, will likely NEVER see her kids again and has made NASA nervous about using women in the space program. Not a very nice way to end up... :(

Then you have Anna Nicole Smith...

Pretty girl who parlayed into something spectacular, had it all for a while and is now taking a dirt nap. But was it natural or did the "husband" Howard K. Stern help it along? He WAS there when Anna's son died and he stands to inherit megabucks if he is indeed her hubby. Then there is the baby thing. Who's the daddy? That will make a big difference in how the money gets distributed.

So did she OD? Was it the flu as Howie claims? Did he let her lie there and die if she was sick?

Personally, I think Larry Birkhead is the "babydaddy" and Howie didn't want to share the potential windfall from J. Howard Marshall's estate. That case can actually still go to court on behalf of the baby, so if Anna's estate wins against Marshall's estate, whoever gets control of the baby gets control of the money. Greed makes people do stupid things (see Nowak, above).

Makes me wish I was a rock sometimes...
