    "She's lived here her entire life, almost 80 years," the report said, "and she's been through just about everything ..."

    However, Landry cut off Brown's address and corrected her. 

    "I ain't no 80 years old," Landry said to the reporter. 

    When Brown apologized and called Landry 76, the older woman stepped in again. 

    "No, 75," Landry said.

    "Is an elephant heavy?" Landry asks. "I'm coming back, baby."
