To commemorate her 79th birthday, actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan
's Radio City Music Hall for a benefit. One of the musical numbers she performed
was 'My Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music' .
Here are the lyrics
she used:
Cadillac's and
cataracts, hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in
glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings, These are a few of my
favorite things.
When the pipes
leak, When the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I simply remember my favorite
things, And then I don't feel so bad.
Hot tea and
crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or food cooked with
onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring, These are a few of
my favorite things.
Back pain, confused
brains and no need for sinnin', Thin bones and fractures and hair that is
thinnin', And we won't mention our short shrunken frames, When we remember our
favorite things.
When the joints
ache, When the hips break, When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember the
great life I've had, And then I don't feel so bad.
(Ms. Andrews
received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted over four minutes and
repeated encores. Please share Ms. Andrews' clever wit and humor with others who
would appreciate it.)
If you cant tell, Noelle loves telling old age jokes. I guess its how she deals with it because she keeps telling me "Dont Get Old". Her body might be giving in but her mind is a sharp as a needle. Take a look at her other jokes under the relevant tab.
