And here is the part of the message where I treat you to something
random:

Cancel Jams

There are too many pop songs. Ever since the one-hit wonder de-
regulation of the Eighties, international leaders have agreed that the
wandering herds of pop choking the globe should be culled for the good
of the planet. Attempts to reach an agreement on which to destroy,
however, have always failed, with the United States insisting on a
unilateral ABBA ban while refusing to even consider the sweeping Billy
Joel reductions that the European Union is asking for.

We've come up with a solution that's as simple as it is equitable:
simply remove the great many songs with titles that cancel each other
out. "Rain" by Madonna and "No Rain" by Blind Melon, poof. "Don't
Stand So Close to Me" by The Police, and "Don't Go Away" by Oasis,
poof. You get the idea.
