The Slice

How to drive others out of their minds

1. Subscribe to cable TV.

2. Make sure to get a package that comes with the full Music Choice lineup.

3. Get comfortable, grab the remote and settle in for a marathon channel-surfing session in which you listen to parts of 781 songs in an hour.

While regular channel-surfing is pretty easy for other members of your household to tune out, music is different. Songs can command attention in a special way. But when you aren't the one with the remote, it's almost certain to be a maddening experience.

"Oh, that's a great song...don't change it, don't change it...ahh, fudge."
