Fifth graders' opinions on the Martha Stewart trial And for anyone who cares, Martha herself is looking forward to returning to being America's domestic diva.
  • I still think she needs to start a new magazine on anger management titled (here it comes...) "Martha Stewart Livid".
  • Free Martha! ...with every purchase
  • Leave Martha alone. She's a pleasant person with an excellent sense of humour and a refreshing lack of ego.
  • Wolof: Oh, Puleez! Martha is a slut as well as a thief. I have it on good order that she lays around the house in torn and sloppy sweatsuits, picking her nose and wiping it on the chinz sofa cushions. I can't talk anymore. I have to go reupholster my stove and make a lovely bouquet out of twisted bread ties, dryer lint, and glitter sprinkled dried banana peels. Love, GramMa
  • The article that goetter linked to was interesting, but I think the author misunderstands why people, especially women, dislike Martha Stewart so much. It is't because she is successful - we don't dislike movie stars or best selling authors. But Blue Horse hit the nail on the head - it's because she raises the bar, she says that women (and men) have to work all day and have a perfect home too. To the rest of the world who are just happy to have food on the table within an hour or two of getting home from work, the idea that we should be making centrepieces is just insulting. I'm happy when I have a clean bathroom, let alone a coordinated one. She has staff - the rest of us have dirty houses.
  • I got the wink Wolof. Someone post a link to an .avi file of the SNL sketch "Martha Stewart Topless Holiday Special". Now! I demand it! *clap* *clap*! dance! ha ha haa!! Dance my little monkeys!! zzZZZnK! wha? . .*yaaawwwn* . . huh?
