It All Started With a Big Bang!!

The Big Bang Theory has many meanings, including the popular TV show of the same name. This is the third in a series of 10 caches created in a tribute to the Big Bang Theory and the hilariosity the show brings to TV, in particular, Sheldon Cooper. Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper are both brilliant physicists working at Cal Tech in Pasadena, California. They are colleagues, best friends and roommates, although in all capacities their relationship is always tested primarily by Sheldon's regimented and non-conventional ways. They are also friends with their Cal Tech colleagues, mechanical engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist Rajesh Koothrappali. The foursome spend their time working on their individual work projects, playing video games, watching science fiction movies or reading comic books. As they are self-professed nerds, all have little or no luck with "popular" women. When Penny, a pretty woman and an aspiring actress originally from Omaha, moves into the apartment next to Leonard and Sheldon's, Leonard has another aspiration in life, namely to get Penny to be his girlfriend. Sheldon, played by Jim Parsons, is the nerdiest of them all; the king of the comic book geeks, the smartest of the group, and, of course, the character with some of the most hilarious one-liners known to the scientific community. In my head, I see the nerds of Big Bang Theory enjoying geocaching due to the technological aspect of using government-placed, multi-billion dollar sattelites to find tupperware in the woods. Maybe it's just me though, as nerds typically don't like the outdoors, but I can dream, right? Anyways, for this cache, we involve not only a TV show, but a famous Canadian Band (in the Barenaked Ladies). BNL performs a theme song for the show, which ends (appropriately) in "it all started with a big bang!" This appears at the start of each episode, and is one of my favourite parts as I get to sing along! :) The reference as it appears in the show is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkabQyzAQn8&feature=related The cache should be a fairly simple find but I would recommend finding it during the day light due to the dense bushes. Bug spray is also highly recommended.
