LOLIRL!!!

Wait... you're serious?

Why is it those with a considerable amount of money who do egregious acts always expect someone else to:

A: Take the blame,
B: Share the blame,
C: Pay their way out of trouble?

Maybe that's why I'm not rich: I pay for my own mistakes. Time to start getting poor saps to pay for me!

Wow, that's harsh. I was looking over the most recent Martha Stewart Living just a week ago and found a recipe for pumpkin cookies so delectable that I had to copy it down. I think I will get my father a subscription for Xmas. Unlike you, he is a retired lawyer so he has more time for domestic matters these days.

Sounds like Martha must've found a good penpal: Andy Wiederhorn (http://www.wweek.com/story.php?story=5176)

well, if it's for the good of the stock price . . .

When she gets out of jail, perhaps a psychiatric facility would be in order.

Hey Jack! I have a place over here in SE, perhaps she could fit right in .

I realize its OK for me too have such a place, but, I really want some of the "progressives" who post here to take this one,an I'll take Martha, she hasn't killed anybody like the group I have. Do you think you could please discuss the merits of five criminally insane people next to a grade school, and allowing them to walk "unsupervised" past that school? Please, professor, explain to me why this makes sense. Respectfully, Jack Peek

Mr. Peek, I keep thinking if I read your posts just a little more or harder, one of them will make some kind of sense to me someday.

Is this likely to happen, do you think?

I think I see what Mr. Peek is saying... please correct me if I am wrong though.

We are making a big hooplah over M Stewart while other, more pressing (and local) issues are being apparently overlooked. We (collective term) were up in arms over her committing stock fraud. We are enraged that she may get off without punishment and some of us are upset she is shacked up at "Camp Cupcake" instead of a real prison (hint to y'all... white-collar criminals don't got to real prisons. Not normally, at any rate - they'd have to commit a pretty serious crime to get sent to a standard prison.) And now, she's looking for her stockholders to bail her out, even though her net worth is in the double (if not triple) millions.

On the other side of the fence, and a lot closer to home, we have sentenced criminals walking free in our neighborhoods, around our schools and children, with little to no supervision. We have registered sex offenders squeaking by unnoticed and disappearing into society. And although there are some that are actively putting the spotlight on these criminals, the collective we seem to be more intersted in what Martha is up to.

In that light, it seems a rather unbalanced set of priorities, no?

Hope I got this right, Mr. Peek.

Seems to me that there's a good buck to be made for the plaintiff's attorney willing to bring a shareholders' derivative action against Martha for her bad acts. Curious that it hasn't happened already.
