He thought it quite strange, so he pulled it out and music started playing! “…On the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again…”
He freaked out and ran to get the Medical Examiner and dragged him back to the table.
“Look!” he said, and pulled the cork out again. “…On the road again…”
The Medical Examiner is totally unimpressed saying “So what?”
“Isn’t that the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen?” the man asked.
“Are you kidding?” replied the Medical Examiner. “Any asshole can sing country music!”
