I got this in the mail and thought you guys would get a good laugh out of it.  Julie Andrews for her 69th birthday got up and sang the following lyrics to a group of AARP people. -----it is from the movie, "The Sound of Music."  Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines all tied up in string, these are a few of my favorite things.  Cadillacs and cataracts, and 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's a 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.     Enjoy.  Glenna Goodwin
