Julie Andrews. Sound of Music with a modern twist
Just a little share from subscriber Art, from Staten Island
To commemorate her birthday , 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 lyrics she used:FYI: If you sing it, it's especially hysterical!!!
Botox 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.Cadillacs 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.)

The 13 Commandments of Hot Tub use
1. Sound advice to call 911 if there is an emergency. I think most first graders know this, but it never hurts to remind people
2. The lifeguard said number 2 is "a gray area". Basically he said no one is going to check unless you try to use the pool at the high end resorts (Contemporary, Grand Floridian or Polynesian). If you try that then you're banished to the Super 8.
3. Sound advice. Eat your meatball hero in the food court and not the hot tub
4. I'm assuming glass is in reference to items you drink from and not the screens on all the smart phones I saw poolside
5. I'm not sure anyone wants to be called a "load". Yes you tend to over eat on vacation, but still. I'm guessing all the politically correct terminologies are going to be thrown away now.
6. Always good to know when it opens and closes. Without this we would have anarchy. This is a solid rule
7. Not one person took a shower before entering. To double down, no one showered upon leaving. Maybe they thought the shower they took last night qualified ?
8. I stayed in for 18 1/2 minutes. I'm a history buff and I wanted to see if that amount of missing time would do me in like it did Nixon. 2 hours later I still haven't had to resign from anything.
9. I'm no expert, but 104 sounds like an arbitrary number unlike 100 for pitch counts which seems to be much more scientific
10. Half the kids in the hot tub were around 8 and we wound up supervising them. I guess it doesn't say that it has to be your specific parents
11. This was a long commandment. Basically it's Disney covering themselves from lawsuits if you are foolish enough to use the hot tub if you're drunk or strung out.
12. If you don't listen to #11 then you best follow #12, unless you like the taste of spa water
13. Very much a discriminatory commandment. What about diaper wearing seniors ? Is kiddie urine somehow more toxic to the rest of us?
BONUS COMMANDMENT:
No Diving into the 2 1/2 foot deep hot tub. Somewhere on the planet there's a hot tub diving victim who collected millions for their pain and suffering
