Do you feel safe with Martha Stewart on the loose?

She gets out of prison this week.

The justice system is turning her out having served less than her full sentence. Is this a good idea?

as long as they check for gang tattoos and she comes out clean, there shouldn't be a problem.

I don't see where it's going to make any difference. She was a patsy, really, and was used to make an example. Sure, what she did was wrong, but I would tend to think that she's not the first famous person to do it, and she'll not be the last. I'm not a tremendous fan of hers, but I'm glad she's out for I don't think she did anything more than many others before her did. Besides, I don't think that orange is really her color. She seems more of a "cool/winter" to me

I am so afraid now I will have to lock all my doors all the time.

I'm not afraid.

However, I am sure my father, brother, and brother in-law (all married) are wondering if this will trigger a new Spring lineup, and if so, will it impact their wallets?

Be very afraid.

Maybe she and Jim Bakker will have some more things in common to talk about, next time they get together for a luncheon.

I'm not sure her personality is my cup of tea, but her program was often interesting and I found it informational.

Her personality is horrible. I couldn't work for her, that's for sure. But I do agree that her program was often interesting. Anyone know if she'll be doing it again, or is that now out?

I'm absolutely terrified, and if I lived near her I'd be keeping my doors locked - she might break in and redecorate.

Currently, I do live near her. I'm not afraid at all. I may not like her (or I may and I do), but I think that she was treated unfairly by the justice system and especially the media because she is a famous woman. Thank goodness she wasn't also black - they might've given her the death penalty!

I'm afraid I'm going to wake up some morning and find that someone has made honey-glazed scones with honey they pulled from their own hive, and butter they churned from their own milk cows.

<shudder>

Greg, why do I have a hard time believing that??

Relax people. She has to wear an ankle bracelet for three months. We have a short reprieve.

This would have little to no meaning to me except that I drove by her place in Katonah, NY last August and saw where her "house arrest" was going to take place. The other Weekender's daughter-in-law grew up around the corner so she was showing us the area. Martha had not entered jail yet and there was a flurry of workers there. The other Weekender swore she saw a blonde in a shell jacket standing at the doorway. To which I said, in the correct Richard Belzer voice, "Yeah, right."

So anyway, I actually know where she will be, right next door to Ralph Lauren's place! Its a sunny cottage-y kind of place with some outbuildings. I would guess about 60-100 acres or so. Right down the road is a place called Caramoor (I think?), where they have beautiful gardens and many summer time concerts.

Most of us are safe, believe me. Its quite a walk to get to any town or anything and I bet she will have an electronic shocker ankle bracelet or somethin.

Yeah, right.

P.S. If you are ever in the neighborhood, go to the John Jay mansion. Excellent gardens and historic farm displays.

Well, what scares me about it is that I wouldn't get to do those things myself

Someone told me that she won't be able to leave her house--that she can't go out onto her property. I don't know if that's true or not. If so, it ruins the whole reason she volunteered to go to jail early, which was so she could get out in time for Spring gardening.

I don't know, this sounds like cruel and unusual punishment to me.
