Flashmob forming today.

There’s no doubt in my mind that this is going to rapidly degrade into a circus… so many variables: how much media will show up? will there be “authorities” there to shoo the mobbers away? How many people can you CRAM into such a tight spot? Are the instructions going to be overly complicated? So many things to go horribly, horribly wrong.

Nonetheless, like the twisted, burning remains of a trainwreck, I’m drawn to it and, against EVERY OUNCE of my better judgement, will be participating in the chaos… See you there?Flash Mob #1
