Breaking NEWS Martha to be released

[Tramspotter]

Heh what rodents the media are... camping outside the prison waiting to catch martha collect her stuff and shuffle out...

I can't wait till she writes her next book all hardened from club Fed.

Could we expect chapters such as:


~ How to make a decorative shiv from a cafeteria spoon and gum wrappers.

~ Herbal Toilet hooch (turning bread into a delightfully refreshing alcoholic beverage with a surprisingly wide variety simple flavorings)

~ Smuggling your favorite spices in swallowed condoms (which herbs not to try)

~ Novel accompaniments for eating raw cell block tough "Clams"

~ Making a depilatory powder from common cleaning supplies

~ Hiding contraband with style and aplomb

~ Proper Etiquette when servicing two guards at once

~ Throwing an after lock-down party

~ Much to my chagrin there's no planting allowed in "The Yard"

~ How to keep ones social decorum in a group shower experience

The one tidbit I've loved from her jailhouse experience is that she was busted for smuggling in spices and herbs for her jailhouse food. LOL.

However, I must admit that I thought her being sent to prison in the first place was kind of stupid. I always thought it was foolish for the State of New York to spend so much money on prosecuting her when there was so much bigger fish to fry. But that's just me.

I'm looking forward to her version of The Apprentice. Somehow, I'm glad she's still in there kicking.

I hope Martha does just fine.

It's not just you. I feel the same way. Enron, anyone?

Lol- she's leaving prison richer and thinner than she was when she went in....

[Ghoulish Delight]

You know, she chose to go to prison. She could have remained out of prison during the appeals process, but made the decission to just get it over and done with.

its called making an example.... unfortunately, the federal goverment believes that it still must do it...

Ok, I found something very amusing this morning. On the CNN website, the story starts with the following sentence.

With a big smile and her daughter by her side, Martha Stewart said good-bye early today to the West Virginia prison where she has been confined since last fall.

The picture above, however, shows her standing next to a horse.

Maybe they goofed and put in an old photo of Melissa and Joan Rivers?

I know that Martha is one of those people that we love to hate -- but I don't think anyone (except the State of New York) wanted her to ACTUALLY head to jail. Dare I say, however, that jail was in some ways a positive experience for her? I'm glad she survived the whole ordeal and is almost done putting it behind her.
