As I was traveling along the freeway a few months back, I saw a road sign
advertising XM.  I can't remember the exact quote, but it went something like:

"All music, except kazoo"  

If they put on OKOM, they will need to change their billboards.  I thought to
myself, I guess I don't need to look any further into that medium for music I
want to listen too.  Some kazoo I do enjoy listening to!
