10/19: Smooth Jazz email snafu
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Proving computer systems have minds of their own sometimes, Smooth Jazz 107.5 had an email snafu yesterday in which an unknown number of people received the follwing email:
10:16am
You have been Chosen as a winner to Smooth Jazz 107.5 and The Atlanta Jazz Festival would like to congratulate you, you won VIP concert tickets as well as dinner for 2 at Two Urban Licks. Please Contact us at 404-765-9750 on how to claim your prize
Then 16 minutes later, the following correction:
10:32am
If you just received an email stating that you are a Smooth Jazz winner to 2 Urban Licks, we are sorry to inform you that this was an error in our email system. Please continue to listen and watch out for email blasts such as this. You never know when Smooth Jazz 107.5FM will make you a winner. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Poor Deirdre, the secretary who answers the phone for Smooth Jazz, has had to give a 15-second disclaimer apologizing for this error every time someone calls. Her boss Wayne Brown said they’re trying to figure out how this happened.

In related news, WAOK (the voice of the ignorant) will be giving their listeners a free dinner at Church’s Chicken and Yasim’s Fish Supreme.

WAOK and a baby’s diaper have a lot in common- they both are filled with you know what. Nothing but spooks and ghetto trash
