Simon was married five times, including to actress Marsha Mason, who had appeared in his stage comedy “The Good Doctor” and went to star in several of his films, including “The Goodbye Girl” and “Chapter Two,” which Simon wrote following the 1973 cancer death of his first wife, Joan Baim. After he and Mason divorced, Simon was married twice to Diane Lander — from 1987 to 1988 and again from 1990 to 1998 — before marrying actress Elaine Joyce in 1999. In addition to Joyce, he is survived by his two daughters with Baim, Ellen and Nancy, and Lander’s daughter from a previous marriage, Bryn, who Simon adopted, as well as three grandchildren and a great-grandson. He was 91.

I've heard that one somewhere before... Oh, yeah...

I wouldn't know about that.

Considering he and the Mrs. make approximately $50 million a year between them, I'd guess you are correct.

Waiter charges Astros' Justin Verlander $1 million for 'Dodger Killer' Hefty price tags in Beverly Hills are nothing new, but Houston Astros pitcher Justin Verlander got a surprise when his lunch bill came to more than $1 million on Friday. The bill from the waiter at the Cabana Cafe at the Beverly Hills Hotel included $30 pancakes, a $42 salad and ... $1 million for "Dodger Killer." Former tennis player Mardy Fish, who dined with Verlander, also posted a picture of the $1,095,198.20 receipt, saying he picked up the tip. Verlander and the Astros won the 2017 World Series, beating the Los Angeles Dodgers in a deciding Game 7 for the team's first championship. The AL West-leading Astros are visiting the Los Angeles Angels for a three-game series. Verlander, who is 12-8 with a 2.65 ERA and 223 strikeouts this season, is scheduled to pitch in Saturday's game. Verlander, who is making $28 million this season, has only faced the Dodgers three times during the regular season over his career, going 3-0 with a 2.91 ERA and 27 strikeouts. He appeared in two games during last year's World Series against the Dodgers, going 0-1 while giving up five runs in 12 innings with 14 strikeouts.

Triplets? I thought the only family with 3 brothers in gay porn was the Rocklands.

Just in terms of face & body (not performance) I always thought Ken Ryker-- chest NOT shaved, hair NOT bleached blond-- was the most perfect physical specimen ever in porn. If you could eliminate his voice, Chad Johnson had muscles, fur, & dick (& low-hanging balls) that made quite an impression on me. The face wasn't bad, either. Al Parker & Giorgio Canali were pretty close to the complete package for me.

Amazon Primitive... Drone video shows Amazon tribe that's never been seen by the outside world A drone located at the border of Brazil and Peru captured video of an Amazonian tribe that has never been seen by the outside world. The video — released this week by the National Indian Foundation — shows two men walking in the woods of the Vale do Javari, located on the west of Brazil in the State of Amazonas. “This is the third ground-based monitoring expedition of the isolated Indians in less than a year in this region," the Foundation wrote in the statement. The expedition, called "Monitoring the Presence of Isolated Indians in the Rio Juruazinho," ran from July 16 to Aug. 1 of last year. The Foundation worked with the local police as well as with the indigenous Kanamari, “who occupy both indigenous lands, and are deep knowers of this region,” according to the statement. Along with the video, the Foundation released photos of an ax tied with vegetable fiber, two canoes made with palm trees and a horn made of bark.

I think the only thing I ever saw her in was Piggy Sue Got Married. I may have seen Grosse Pointe Blank. If I did, it wasn't memorable. That reminds me... I need to buy a can of Goya beans.

Fast-food chains to end ‘no-poach’ clauses that capped wages Eight big US fast-food chains have agreed to end “no-poach” tactics that critics say have kept down wages and thwarted worker mobility for years. Restaurants including Applebee’s, Church’s Chicken, Five Guys, IHOP, Jamba Juice, Little Caesars, Panera and Sonic will eliminate the no-poach provisions from current and future franchise contracts nationwide following an investigation by the Washington State Attorney General. These eight companies have more than 15,000 locations nationwide and the legally binding agreement will affect hundreds of thousands of workers, according to law enforcement. “Businesses can’t rig the system to avoid competition,” said Washington State AG Bob Ferguson. “Other fast food companies that use no-poach provisions are now on the clock to accept a similar deal or face litigation from my office.” Attorneys general in at least 10 other states also have begun their own investigations into no-poaching clauses after the practice. The restaurants are backing down after seven big fast-food chains including McDonald’s, Arby’s and Carl’s Jr. ended the practice earlier this year. Last year, a pair of Princeton economists had blasted no-poach clauses, estimating they affected 70,000 fast-food restaurants nationwide, or a quarter of the total. No-poach provisions appear in lengthy franchise agreements that owners of fast-food franchises sign with corporate headquarters. Consequently, employees are generally unaware the provisions even exist, according to Ferguson. The provisions effectively prohibit employees from moving among restaurants of the same corporate chain – for example, prohibiting one Little Caesars employee from accepting employment from another Little Caesars franchise location for higher pay. Because employees cannot move to another location within their corporate brand, their current location has less incentive to give them raises. Little Caesars stopped including no-poach clauses in their franchise contracts for most workers in 2017, but still restricted workers from moving between franchise and corporate stores. Applebee’s, IHOP and Jamba Juice ended the practice in 2018, after Ferguson’s office began investigating them. As a result of Ferguson’s case, they are now legally bound to end the practice

Does the policy “you break it, you buy it” apply to new cars? Or buildings? A woman in China may be finding out the answer after she ended her test drive of a new BMW X1 SUV by crashing into the dealership that she borrowed it from. Security camera footage of the incident from last week shows the vehicle smashing into the glass doors of the Guangzhou showroom, pausing for a second, then accelerating into the counter as staff and customers jump out of the way. According to Shanghaist, the woman later admitted that she’d accidentally hit the accelerator instead of the brake. No one was injured in the crash, but it is not known how much of the damages she is being held responsible for.

Maybe if she had wondered what it was like to be BLACK and arrested her daughter would've arranged it.

Cop breastfeeds malnourished baby while on duty at hospital (COVER YOUR EYES!!!) A police officer in Argentina is being praised on social media after photos of her breastfeeding a malnourished baby went viral. Officer Celeste Jaqueline Ayala was working guard duty at the Sor Maria Ludovica children’s hospital in Buenos Aires when a neglected baby was brought in. Ayala immediately asked to hold the baby, who hospital staff said was “smelly and dirty,” and began to nurse him, Mirror reported. Witness Marcos Heredia took a photo of the compassionate act and posted it on Facebook, where it amassed over 154K likes. “I want to make public this great gesture of love that you had today with that little baby,” read Heredia’s post, loosely translated from Spanish. “Who without knowing you didn’t hesitate and for a moment you fulfilled how if you were her mother. You don’t care about filth and smell … things like that don’t [happen] every day.” Ayala said she did not think twice about helping the baby in need. “I noticed that he was hungry, as he was putting his hand into his mouth, so I asked to hug him and breastfeed him,” she said to Cronica. “It was a sad moment, it broke my soul seeing him like this, society should be sensitive to the issues affecting children, it cannot keep happening.” Now, Ayala’s kind-hearted move has prompted tons of praise on social media and a Twitter campaign using her name as a hashtag. The Bomberos Voluntarios Berisso fire brigade where Ayala volunteers paid their own tribute to the selfless woman. “We want to congratulate the voluntary firefighting cadet Celeste Ayala who yesterday in her job as police officer whilst she was on guard duty at the hospital, breastfed a young child who arrived crying. Actions like these fill us with pride and obligate us to redouble the effort, the work and the solidarity with our community,” the brigade wrote, the Mirror reported. According to the Mirror, the baby was the youngest of six brought in by a struggling single mother.

For her 93rd birthday, a Maine woman got “arrested” — and got a kick out of it. Anne Dumont good-humoredly arranged with the Augusta Police Department to “gently arrest” her mother, Simone, who loves watching the TV show, “Cops,” WBTV reported. “She goes on about how the police have the worse job and what they have to deal with, and she wondered what it was like to be arrested and sit in the back seat,” Dumont posted to Facebook. Dumont’s mother told her the surprise gift on July 7 “made my life.” “She happily got to see the inside of the police car. Front and back and also pushed the siren button until it whaled. A momentous event,” Simone’s daughter wrote on Facebook. Simone now refers to the patrol car’s owner, Officer Paul Doody, as “her cop,” WABC reported, and she even got an authentic Augusta police junior officer decal as a present. The Augusta Police Department wrote on Facebook that it was “very proud to have been invited” to be a part of the birthday celebration.
