NEW YORK - Barbra Streisand announced Thursday that she will embark on a national concert tour this fall, her first in over a decade.
Streisand will play 20 concerts in U.S. cities during October and November, her manager, Martin Erlichman, said in a statement. Her last U.S. tour was in 1994.
The 64-year-old singer-actress plans to give "designated proceeds" from the tour to support several causes, including the environment, education and women's health. The money will be distributed through the Streisand Foundation.
"The increasingly urgent need for private citizen support to combat dangerous climate change, along with education and health issues, was the prime reason I decided to tour again," Streisand said in a statement. "This will allow me to direct funds and awareness to causes that I care deeply about."
The tour follows the release of her latest album, "Guilty Pleasures," last September. In 2004, Streisand marked her return to the big screen, co-starring in the Ben Stiller comedy, "Meet the Fockers."
Dates and locations will be announced at a later date.

The first one, "Meet the Parents" was hilarious************
It was pretty funny. I can't imagine what they were thinking with the second one. Nothing, I suppose.

Greg:Thank you. Oh, yeah.
Dina: You must've had vegetables fresher than that, growing up on a farm, Greg.
Pam: Dad, uh, Greg grew up in Detroit.
Dina: He told me he grew up on a farm. - Do they have many farms in Detroit? -
Greg:No, Dina, no, not a lot. In fact, Jack, I should clarify this. I didn't actually grow up... on a farm per se. The house we grew up in was originally erected... in the early Dutch farm, colonial style. So that, plus we had a lot of pets--
Jack: - Which one did you milk then?
Pam:- Dad!
Jack: Honey, he said he pumped milk.
What have you ever milked?
Greg: A cat.
Jack: A cat?
Greg:I milked a cat once. You wanna hear a story?
Jack: Sure.
Greg: My sister had a cat, and the cat birthed a litter of kittens. Must've been sixty of them, and there was this one little runt... this little sweet little... little-engine-that-could runt... who wanted to get up there and couldn't really get access to the-- to the-- to the-- to the-- to the teat.
Jack: Teat?
Pam: Dad. What have you.
Greg: I went in and just simply, you know, just-- into a little saucer, then took the saucer and fed it to Geppetto-- that's what I named him.
Dina: I had-- I had no idea you could milk a cat.
Greg: Oh, yeah, you can milk anything with nipples.
Jack: I have nipples, Greg. Could you milk me?

MIDI - PEOPLE
People...you pajama people
Are the scariest people in the world
At keyboards...online at your keyboards
On the leftists you keep an eye
I think that I could cry
I don't like all you right wing people
People...you bad pajama people
Are the scariest people in the world
And my spelling...you always check my spelling
You people never retreat...although I am the elite
You will not kiss my feet
That's why I hate you pajama people
Bad pajama people
You're the scariest people in the world
People...you pajama people
Are the scariest people in the world
On my site...message boards on my site
You asked why I'm still in SAG
Called me a worn out hag
I hate all you pajama people
People...you bad pajama people
Are the scariest people in the world
Bush is winning...why does he keep on winning
I scream until I turn red
He makes me wish I were dead
Perhaps I'll drive with Ted
Because of all you pajama people
Bad pajama people
You're the scariest people in the world
(You pajama people)
