This is from the New York Post:

"TALK about torture. Blender magazine editors chose Starship's 1985 hit "We Built This City" as the worst song of all time. Now they've assigned contributor Russ Heller to set a world record for repeatedly listening to the worst song ever. He'll sit in a plexiglass booth at the Best Buy in NoHo starting Friday at 8 a.m. and grit his teeth as "We Built This City" is played at least 324 times over a grueling 24 hours."

Seriously, I wonder what the mental state of this person will be after those 24 hours. Don't get me wrong, 'We built this city' is a beautiful anthem to crappy rock but I think I may try and kill myself with a spork if I had to listen to any song, even if it was an all time great, for that long.

Why am I now thinking of Manuel Noriega?

LOL! I would suggest that strategy to topple Kim Jon Il, but now that he has nukes, retaliation may be warranted.

mpfunk did the same thing with the Mormon Rap several years ago, and look how he turned out.
