(Editors note: Fixed title to blog, nobody caught my obvious error, for shame. 
)
There were no suggestions for Asshat this week, apparently my shunning of last week's suggestions and instead going off the board on my own has left a bitter taste in the mouths of some. Or it could just be that this was not nearly as good a week as last for Asshats. But Asshats are to be found and I have a pair. I will start by asking two relatively simple questions, both of which come with the same answer for this week's winners. 1) What would you do if you were an underage teenage girl and a older married man determined that your vagina would be a great place for his penis? 2) What would you do if you were a married man and a teenage girl was so smitten with you that to show you her affection, she decided to blast off your wife's face with a gun? If you answered "let's get together and see if we can't get a TV show out of the deal, or at least fuck", then you too may be an Asshat winner in the future. For the present however, we are relegated to those fine specimens Joey Buttafuco and Amy Fisher, who may now come on down and receive their collective prize.
AMY & JOEY SET DATE FOR LOVE
By JAMES FANELLI and DAVID K. LI
May 13, 2007 -- For love or money? That is the question as Joey Buttafuoco and Amy Fisher are planning a romantic rendezvous for tomorrow night.
Fresh from the pen and soon to be single, Buttafuoco will wine and dine Long Island Lolita Amy Fisher over a candlelit dinner at a restaurant overlooking Central Park, The Post has learned.
The pair - whose yearlong affair ended in 1992, when Fisher shot Buttafuoco's then-wife, Mary Jo - plan to meet a couple of times during the week in an effort that TV producer David Krieff hopes will rekindle old feelings. And attract interest in a reality show.
Krieff, who will film the courtship, said Joey will come bearing flowers and a gift.
"If Mary Jo and Amy can be friends, then why can't Joey and Amy be lovers?" he asked.
But Buttafuoco said he has his own agenda - and wants to apologize for his on-camera blowup during their televised reunion last year.
"I need to be able to meet her, to be able to go on," he said. "And if it takes a turn to something else, well, there I am. You never know."
According to Krieff, Buttafuoco has been head over heels about the planned hookup.
He said Joey told him: "I still have feelings for her. I can't wait to have dinner with her. I can't wait to be with her. I can't wait to touch her."
Buttafuoco, citing the off-again, on-again Hollywood romance of Ryan O'Neal and Farrah Fawcett, said kissing and making up might not be so far-fetched.
"God bless them. Maybe I can be like them. If things can happen for them . . ." he said.
Krieff said he arranged the date because Buttafuoco is still hung up on his old squeeze.
"Joey's traveling 3,000 miles," Krieff said. "He still has feelings for her."
And Krieff believes Fisher, who recently had her breasts enlarged, still carries a torch for her old flame.
"I don't think she would be going to a romantic dinner if she didn't have feelings for him," he said.
Krieff wouldn't divulge where the dinner date would be.
Buttafuoco, 53, finished a three-month stint in the Los Angeles County Jail for illegal ammunition possession last month. He told shock jock Howard Stern last week that he has spoken regularly to Fisher, 32, since his release.
Tomorrow's rendezvous comes nearly 15 years to the day after Fisher, then 17, shot Mary Jo in the face at the Buttafuocos' Massapequa, L.I., home. Fisher served seven years for the shooting. She later married and had two kids.
Buttafuoco did four months for statutory rape, moved to California and divorced Mary Jo in 2003, and then remarried.
Last week, both Buttafuoco and Fisher's spouses filed for divorce, with reports citing the tawdry twosome's renewed contact as a reason for the splits.
"I'm still hurting," Buttafuoco said of the split. "I'll always love Evanka."
The last time the auto-body shop owner was face to face with his erstwhile lover, he spewed venom, telling Fisher she should be damned to hell.
During that May 2006 TV reunion, Mary Jo and Fisher hugged each other - but Joey unleashed the screed after Fisher demanded he apologize for seducing her.
"You are going to burn in hell you little [expletive]!" he shrieked. "I am finished with this nonsense."
Buttafuoco stormed off the set.
Krieff blamed Buttafuoco's meltdown on his former wife's presence. Buttafuoco dismissed that theory.
"I was very ill in a hospital the night before and heavily medicated," he said. "It just got off in the wrong direction. I don't want to be in that place, with that kind of anger."
