Essie Award Time

It's time to award an Essie, the award given solely on the basis of incredible stupidity.

Estefany Danelia Martinez and Anna Margarita Rivera were tellers at a bank in Houston. They conspired with the boyfriend of one and the brother of the other to rob the bank of more than $62,000. Then they posted on their Facebook pages. "IM RICH." 'WIPE MY TEETH WITH HUNDEREDS (sic)." It didn't take long for the police to come knocking.

So out of the hundereds of people I could have chosen, this Essie is for you, Estefany and Anna.

What do you want to bet that they were illegal too?
