Martha Stewart Sends Hand Model’s Finger Into A Scissory Abyss Hand models, being essential to the global economy, must be protected at all costs. Without them the rest of us would be quite helpless when trying to order a watch from a catalogue. Also mitten sales would plummet, and Palmolive would become just an ordinary dish soap. Martha Stewart doesn't care though. That's why she allows the furniture she sells to cut off hand model fingers anytime it wants to. It happened recently you know - and not just to any ordinary hand model - he was a magician and a banjo player too. Notice that's all past tense - way past tense.
