Seven speeds, seven notes
A sleepy roommate is making a smoothie. Every time Pi pushes a notch, the roommate turns the dial to the same speed, and the blender sings the note. So Pi plays a gallop on it, faster and faster, and the blender starts walking toward the edge. One last push to speed 7, and the cord pulls the plug right out of the wall. The roommate catches the blender, takes a big gulp full of unblended ice, and crunches it back to the right note.
Music: Rossini, William Tell Overture, finale (1829, public domain), own arrangement.
