Weirdest performance

• once a judge asked me what I did for a living during a court appearance. Then, he had me sing "Sound of Music" while the trial was going on. It did end up in my favor but not sure if my voice had influenced him at all. I was curious to see what the court reporter had typed while I was singing.
