Somehow, he'd missed seeing that the young lady was already engaged in conversation.  Of course, he wouldn't spike a lady's drink, and if he was the type, which he wasn't, especially with cameramen and hidden cameras about to record every little thing that everyone was doing.  It was a little insulting that he'd called Norm a 'strange man' and nice that the girl said she didn't think Norm was strange.  If Oshiro later found himself a little 'out-of-sorts' for mixing different drinks in his stomach, Norm wouldn't shed a tear over it.<br/><br/>The sheep ranch hand saw the guitar that had been used as an 'ice-breaker'.  Maybe he'd use that to get a lady's attention?  Sort of like a bird call, since chasing about the room had gotten him nowhere.  While the recorded music was still playing, Norm went and picked the guitar up.  He considered what he might sing, as he double checked and retuned the instrument, if he could jump in while the others decided what song they wanted next.<br/><br/>That first song seemed to be from a musical he'd vaguely remembered hearing.  If some of the girls were actresses, then another show tune might be a good pick.  Norm didn't know a lot of show tunes, he didn't get to see live theatre all that much, but he'd been inspired to see<i>'Come From Away'</i>after seeing one of it's songs performed on a t.v. broadcast of the TONY awards.  The play had been about people stranded in a strange Canadian town when their flights had been redirected because of the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001.  It was a great show.<br/><br/>When<i>'Uptown Funk' </i>ended, Norm strummed a chord and asked if anyone knew,<i>'Stop the World'</i>.<br/><br/>While they were pondering if they knew or wanted to join in, Norm began to play and sing,<br/><i>'Stop the world<br/>
Take a picture<br/>
Try to capture<br/>
To ensure this moment lasts....'</i><br/><br/><div class="bbCodeSpoiler">
