Goodness Gracious Great Balls of Fire - Flash Mob Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

West Texas Reviewer: Greetings,

I believe enough time has passed since your Fantastic Event so that everyone who intended to log it, did so.

I am therefore turning off the lights.

Thank you for all you do for Geocaching.

Geocache Description:

Quick meet up and sing along if you can carry a tune


I often find myself in this area and this the song Great Balls of Fire comes to mind, so I thought i would see if other have the same experience.  Be prepared for suden and somtimes extreem sensations of fire that may progress from mild to medium to hot to hot-regous!

The official Flash Mob is from Noon until 12:15pm.  

Time line:

11:30 to 11:50AM .... .plan to arrive in the facinity
11:50 to 11:59 ....  meander around GZ.  Look busy.  Pick up some trash or record car travel bugs.
11:59 .... arrive at Ground Zero
NOON ... Spontaneously burst into song (see lyrics below)
12:03 .... Enough of that!  Sign the log and hob nob a bit
12:05 .... Moment of silence for BBQ Bob, Bosun, and ECM41* (RIP) followed by rememberances.
12:12 .... Encore performance of Great Balls of Fire just in case anyone missed it the first time
12:15 .... Disburse and go about your fiery way.

Lyrics:  (practice makes perfect!)

 

"Great Balls of Fire"
 
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

I learned to love all of Hollywood money
You came along and you moved me honey
I changed my mind, looking fine
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

You kissed me baby, woo, it feels good
Hold me baby, I wanna love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind I'm gonna tell this world that your mine mine mine mine

I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm really nervous but it sure is fun
Come on baby, you drive me crazy
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Well kiss me baby, woo-oooooo, it feels good,
Hold me baby
I want to love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
I gonna this world that your mine mine mine mine

I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous but it sure is fun
Come on baby, you drive me crazy
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

 

EDIT: I added Bosun and ECM41 to the moment of silence. Bosun had a long history in the greater Houston area and ECM41, although not from around here, passed away on the way up to GCD on the morning of the APE Cache. There are many here around Houston who have done that hike and I wanted include him.\
