I didn't say she's terrible. I said she's annoying. She did an episode of SVU in which a serial rapist was preying on disabled women, and she played a (very) paranoid schizophrenic who was attacked but helped the cops apprehend the guy. Each time I've seen the episode (I watch Stabler-era SVU reruns a lot) and she exhibits all of the quirks and tics of the character I think either "Finally! Amanda Plummer found the perfect role to showcase her acting style!" or "Yet another typical Amanda Plummer performance." She was quite effective in the role, but I'd rather hear Yoko Ono sing than watch Amanda Plummer act in anything that doesn't have Christopher Meloni's ass in it.

Try using lube. ?

AMANDA PLUMMER!!!!!!

Millionaire forced to tear down his illegal $70M French chateau https://nypost.com/2021/02/05/millionaire-forced-to-tear-down-illegal-70m-french-chateau/ What are they gonna do — make me tear it down? Yep. British developer Patrick Diter has been ordered to demolish his $70 million custom-built mansion in Provence, France, which he seemingly built without the right permits. Diter spent over a decade fighting for his self-named Chateau Diter, but the highest French appellate court made its final decision in December: The Tuscan palace has to go. Now Diter has only 18 months to make the 32,000-square-foot home completely disappear. Diter spent €57 million — or about $68.6 million — from 2005 to 2009 creating the house made of imported Italian stones, according to the Daily Mail. The property near Monaco has two helipads, a salt water swimming pool, a medieval cloister, a bell tower and a greenhouse, plus 17 acres of gardens, vineyards, olive groves and lily ponds, according to a rental listing. The 18-bedroom house is filled with chandeliers, 15th-century fireplaces and fresco paintings. There is also a reception room, a library, a screening room, lounges, dining rooms, a steam room, a staff kitchen and a cellar with a wine-tasting room, another listing shows. Over the past 15 years, the house has been a TV set, a wedding venue and a vacation spot, with rates ranging from $300 to more than $1,000 a night. Eight of the 18 bedroom suites have a private garden or terrace, and one apparently has a painted fresco ceiling. Diter allegedly had a building permit — a verbal one from the mayor’s office. But he reportedly began work on the property before receiving an official paper permit. And the permit supposedly didn’t cover all the major work he did — it only covered a “small extension” of the original 2,000-square-foot farmhouse on the property, according to AirMail. Also problematic: Diter allegedly paved a 2,000-foot driveway through environmentally protected lands. Now, it inadvertently funnels rainwater to the outskirts of the town, causing flooding, according to AirMail. But the major sticking point? Loud parties. Diter’s neighbors claim that the noise has made life in their own French chateaus unbearable, and they have been major players in the campaign to have the house torn down. Diter has not conceded to tearing it down and may escalate the decision to the European Court of Human Rights, according to AirMail. “That’s ridiculous. Nobody has violated Patrick Diter’s human rights. His rights have been taken into account every step of the way during this legal journey,” a local official said. If the house is still standing in June 2022, Diter will rack up charges of $600 each day,according to the Daily Beast — which is only about $220,000 a year. Maybe he can afford it.

So what does she owe you?

It's sad that he died, but why is it a tragedy? Everyone dies eventually. He lived a good life, had much success and recognition in his chosen career, and lived to 91. I think most people would happily choose being able to have that said about them after their death. Although most people probably wouldn't want to be known for gifting the world with one of its most annoying actresses. (daughter Amanda.)

Is she Darth's sister, mother, or daughter?

BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION IS... Florida or Mrs. Naugatuck?

Despite having Cheech Marin and Don Cheadle in the cast. Dorothy's 2-part visit was the highlight of the season.

Because the 4 women had perfect chemistry that would've been lessened with any substitution. And Stritch came across as coarse and not particularly warm in the (few) TV roles I saw her in. And Bea's Dorothy is my all-time favorite TV character, so a definite hard pass on the thought of Stritch in the role. I took my Mom to see Bea's one-woman show in Westchester (Nyack) shortly before she (my mom) had a stroke and lost most of her faculties. She only mentioned GG twice.

Thank God she didn't get the part as Dorothy on GOLDEN GIRLS. The show wouldn't have been the same with her in the role instead of Bea Arthur.

Every time I look at the headline for this thread, I think it's asking for info on where to get ADVAIR in NYC.

Is his first initial P?

https://nypost.com/2020/11/24/elon-musk-still-lags-bill-gates-in-philanthropy/ Jeff Bezos stepping down as Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is stepping down as CEO of the e-commerce company he founded 27 years ago, he announced in a stunning new letter to employees on Tuesday. The 2nd richest man in the world said the switch will take place in the third quarter of 2021 when Amazon Web Services CEO, Andy Jassy, will take the reigns. Bezos, 57, will then become executive chair of Amazon’s board, the letter states. “I intend to focus my energies and attention on new products and early initiatives. Andy is well known inside the company and has been at Amazon almost as long as I have,” Bezos said. “He will be an outstanding leader, and he has my full confidence.” The announcement comes just 90 minutes before Amazon reports what is expected to be a blowout holiday quarter earning report. “As much as I still tap dance into the office, I’m excited about this transition,” Bezos said, adding that he will focus on “the Day 1 Fund, the Bezos Earth Fund, Blue Origin, The Washington Post, and my other passions.”

Dorothy: Ma got a letter from Gina Marie Donatelli. Her cousin Joe is hanging new wallpaper in Tony Bennett's guest bathroom. Rose: Oh, I love Tony Bennett. Blanche: Oh, so do I. He was always so sweet to me. Dorothy: Blanche, you dated Tony Bennett? Blanche: Honey, I did more than date him. He may have left his heart in San Francisco, but he left his shorts on my radiator. Rose: You're kidding. Blanche: Hell, no. Picture this... (end of episode)

I pity those teenage boys... forever scarred by almost being run down by an old man. ? ? ?
