I was out with my granddaughter today, and as we pulled into the restaurant parking lot she stopped and listened to the music that was playing. "I know that song," she said.
It was not the radio, but a CD, playing one of a Canadian group's best known hits...American Woman.

"Who is that?" my granddaughter asked. "I know that song."
"Guess Who," I said.
"I'm trying," she said. "It'll come to me."
"Guess Who," I repeated.
"What?"
"Guess Who is the name of the band," I said as I handed her the CD case.
We started to laugh, and laughed so hard I was afraid it was going to be a pee my pants kind of hysterics. It was one of those iconic "Who's on first?" comic moments.
She informed me I better settle down, as we were about to go in for lunch. Some decorum was called for after all.
It was a great moment, worth sharing, much to my granddaughter's chagrin
