It's about 6 pm and she walks into her husband's office where a picture of the newly crowned Miss Universe is on the computer screen. "It's Miss America!" she exclaims. And then it starts. . .
She starts singing Don McLean's "American Pie,"
"A long, long time ago
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile. . .
Through the first verse and chorus ("Bye, bye Miss American Pie, Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the leveee was dry"). Most of the second verse. Then another chorus. All loud enough for everyone in the office to hear.
No response from any other soul in the office. Then she just stops. As suddenly as it had begun, it was over.
