    I like how most people so far have posted more than five. I don't know why I do. I just do.

    My five:
    1. The bodybuilder woman who keeps wanting me to do stories on her every 10th breath I take. Enough with you already!
    2. The person who made the decision to make my chain have hiring freezes on a seemingly bi-weekly basis

  10. Bill Horton

    1. The arrogant principal at our local high school who is just putting in his time toward retirement while the school is going downhill and the best teachers are leaving for other jobs.
    2. The developers who keep raping the land and turning it into scorched earth for more new houses and strip malls. Just what we need: more bad haircut and nail places.
    3. The local politicians who let those developers run rampant without any regard to the need for more secure and adequate infrastructure as well as more greenspace.
    4. People who litter, pollute and waste resources.
    5. Arrogant, intolerant people who refuse to listen, open their minds to other ideas and treat people with compassion and respect - from all sides of the political, religious, social and cultural spectrum.

    Can't argue with that list, though given the infrequent appearances by Berman, Simmons and Jerry Rivers, you're batting .600.
