When the American troops were trying to get Manuel Noriega out of his barricaded palace, they played such songs (at loud volume) as "I Fought the Law and the Law Won."

I just heard recently that a college president, trying to clear his office of students who had taken it over, decided to play N'Sync at 4 a.m., thinking they would like the music's beat so much, they would suffer sleep deprivation. He would have had more luck with Wayne Newton, I think, or with the real killer stuff, playing the song "Feelings" over and over again.

Everybody sing it along with me. . .

"Whoa whoa whoa, feelings. . ." I'd be out of the president's office like a shot.
