I haven't really been following the Martha Stewart case too closely.  But I believe that she was convicted for lying and not for the actual crime of selling her stocks.

I don't know, I've heard a lot of people say that they are making a scapegoat out of her.  And it does seem like they are making a lot of something very minor.

Also on Larry King, I heard Ms Stewart say that her expert lawyers thought that she would be found not guilty (as did she). So I'm not sure what the real story is.

The few callers that I saw were very supportive.  But it seems that so many other people want to bring her down.  I think that is the norm (people loving when celebs fall big time).

DRJennifer, I live in New York and I can't figure the whole Martha Stewart thing out.  She's found guilty of several things, I believe, in this trial:

  1.  Insider trading
  2.  Lying about it
  3.  Being a mean evil bitch; I believe that the broker's assistant who turned evidence painted Miss Martha as a hostile, evil, unfriendly harridan and a lot of his giving evidence was to put her in her place and get revenge

From the past week's events, this is clear:  she's still arrogant, sees nothing wrong in what she did, sees herself as a great martyr like Nelson Mandela who was imprisoned 25 years for political reasons (she got 5 months for lying!), and blames the guilty charge for laying off employees and stock falling, not realizing all the problems with layoffs and stock are the result of her criminal actions.

TCB it was good to see you returned, wish I could have been there.  
I was busy enjoying myself immensely watching “the movie” TWO MEN.  

Bruce I looked at the website wishing I could be there.

Elmore CONTINUED HEALING VIBES!  Have you tried putting ice your back?  A frozen bag of peas works well.  The second day switch to a heating pad

Dan-in-Toronto, shrimp for Passover, or any other time?  You obviously don’t keep kosher. :D

I just finished reading page two.  I will have to finish later as I must go to the post office and do errands.

Public notice.

It is so great to have DR Elmore back here - A pity I read his comments so many hours after they are posted. It seems so dumb to comment on them when I eventually get to the board and my comments are 4 pages on.  Thank you for the  smiles Larry.

I am shortly going to murder a squirrel on my roof.  This idiot squirrel has been noisily scratching my roof directly above where I sleep for the last four days at the crack of dawn.  This has become its "thing" and I'm done with getting up at five or six in the morning.  Tomorrow morning if the little wazoo starts up I have a ladder ready and I will climb up there and have a little conversation with the squirrel and if I don't like its attitude I shall hurl it from here to eternity and hell and back.
You must either feed the squirrel (a la der Brucer), or get a good Burgoo recipee from Charles.

And DR Elmore3003, I think now would also he the time to rent that movie about Puppet People that you have been meaning to rent as well as a Bollywood movie or two!

And don't forget your tickets to INSOMNIA.

So I says to him, "Ernie." "Ernie," I says, "Get off my back!"

I own that damned Puppet People film, but the beautiful Panni is my prior obligation, DRMBarnum.  Just get in line.  Don't cry, lady, I'll buy your stinking violets!

Rest day!

I slept well last night and this morning.  Made up for three days of little to no sleep.

No obsessive cleaning to mention today.  I'm plain tuckered out and grateful to relax.  Spent most of the day with Sci-Fi's "Outer Limits" marathon.

Bad things that keep me on edge:  The phone ringing, something slipping off a table and a naughty cat who likes to misread my movements and jump into my lap -- all of which cause my brain to signal my right arm to react and it's not able to.  Causes discomfort and stress!
