40 Years Later: The 7 Children In 'The Sound of Music'

40 Years Later: The 7 Children In 'The Sound of Music'
 
'The Sound of Music' won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1965 and is one of the most popular musicals ever produced.

Remember the 7 children of the Von Trapp family?



They had a reunion after 40 years
 
and all looked healthy and amazingly well... 








It wouldn't be funny if it weren't true... Julie Andrews turned 69 and to commemorate her 69th birthday on October 1, the actress/vocalist 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 Favourite Things" from the legendary movie "The 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 strings,
These are a few of my favourite things.
Cadillac's 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 favourite things..
When the pipes leak, When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember my favourite 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 favourite 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 favourite 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 humour with others who would appreciate it.

You Gotta Love This Lawyer!

YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS LAWYER !!!

A New Orleans lawyer sought a Federal Housing Authority (FHA) loan for a client who lost his house in Hurricane Katrina and wanted to rebuild. He was told the loan would be granted if he could prove satisfactory title to the parcel of property being offered as collateral. The title to the property dated back to 1803, which took the Lawyer three months to track down.

After sending the information to the FHA, he received the following reply.

(Actual letter):
"Upon review of your letter adjoining your client's loan application, we note that the request is supported by an Abstract of Title.
While we compliment the able manner in which you have prepared and presented the application, we must point out that you have only cleared title to the proposed collateral property back to 1803. Before final approval can be accorded, it will be necessary to clear the title back to its origin."

Annoyed, the lawyer responded as follows.

"Your letter regarding title in Case No. 189156 has been received. I note that you wish to have title extended further than the 194 years covered by the present application. I was unaware that any educated person in this country, particularly those working in the property area, would not know that Louisiana was purchased, by the U.S. , from France in 1803, the year of origin identified in our application.

For the edification of uninformed FHA bureaucrats, the title to the land prior to U.S.ownership was obtained from France , which had acquired it by Right of Conquest from Spain . The land came into the possession of Spain by Right of Discovery made in the year 1492 by a sea captain named Christopher Columbus, who had been granted the privilege of seeking a new route to India by the Spanish monarch, Isabella.

The good queen, Isabella, being a pious woman and almost as careful about titles as the FHA, took the precaution of securing the blessing of the Pope before she sold her jewels to finance Columbus ' expedition. Now the Pope, as I'm sure you may know, is the emissary of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and God, it is commonly accepted, created this world.

Therefore, I believe it is safe to presume that God also made that part of the world called Louisiana . God, therefore, would be the owner of origin and His origins date back to before the beginning of time, the world as we know it AND the FHA. I hope you find God's original claim to be satisfactory. Now, may we have our damn loan?"

He got the loan.

Good Topic, Bad Article

"A Treasure That the Philippines Must Have to Be Guided and Treasured Most"
by I.C.

MABUHAY. A Filipino term for "long live."

Despite of beauty, colors, and wealth of the Philippines, many of the Filipinos today could think that they can't feel these things (mostly our unfortunate brothers and sisters)... They will told you that they never think of what is patriotic or nationalistic... Instead, they will say "...we would so much to think our everyday needs for survival than of being patriotic..."

We cannot blame them... They never think of a Jose Rizal as they will think on a one peso coin much of him... They never think a Andres Bonifacio... A Francisco Balagtas... Or even can tell something about our rich history... This is not brought by ignorance... It is brought by poverty that took much of our society, centuries ago...

Even we, the learned Filipinos, the one who indulged to learn and be educated are unaware for the fact that we Filipinos have something to be proud of... We are so lucky to be send in schools and know about the land we are stepping right now... A country with millions of treasures, but are not buried under the soil... A treasure that we can hold on... And that is our very fare hope... and hope that we could see them to lead our nation in prosperity and greatness ones again... THE YOUTH.

Hope this message might mean for everybody... The Filipinos around the globe... teachers, soldiers, scholars, students, nurses, doctors, attorneys, and everybody... though a street vendor or a street sweeper... The nation of ours is great and we must turn the pages of our history in a way that the next generation will be proud of us and be benefited of what kind of new Filipinas will be a home for them...

Let the history's brave youth of our country serves as the model of our youth...

Tarik Soliman, the leader of the first ever Filipino battle with freedom as its cause... died at a very young age... a datu of Macabebe... dubbed as the bravest of the islands by the Spaniards and tagged as "the brave youth." And research shows that he was just 13 years of age when he fought and died in the famous Battle of Bangkusay...

Gen. Gregorio del Pilar... at a young age of 17, he joined the Katipunan... at the age of 19, he already experienced a bloody battle... at the age of 21, he became the first ever Filipino governor of Bulacan... and at the age of 22, he died for our country...

Emilio Jacinto... at the age of 19, he became one of the Katipunan's greatest leader... and at the age of 23, he died for our country...

Jose Rizal... the Philippine national hero... his undying and timeless works encircles the heart of every generation...

Hope that their memories may not fade...
