It wouldn't be funny if it wasn't so true... Julie Andrews turned 69.

To commemorate her 69th birthday on October 1, actress/vocalist, Julie
Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall
for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed
was "My Favorite Things" from the legendary movie "Sound Of Music."

Here are the actual lyrics she used:

Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails
and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string,
These
are a few of my favorite things.

Cadillac's and cataracts, and hearing aids and glasses, Polident and
Fixodent and false teeth and 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 pains, 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 fr om the crowd that lasted
over four minutes and repeated encores.) Please share Ms. Andrews'
clever wit and humor with others who would appreciate it.
