I got email from my dear friend Michelle last night that she sent to my friend and I. She was having a hard time sleeping and had thought up how we were six degrees of seperation away from Kevin Bacon. And not just once but TWICE. That, my friends, is pretty freakin’ awesome. I’ve always wanted to play this little game but… meh. It seemed like a lot of work and brain power and I really feel like doing or having either of those things. But thanks to Michelle, I don’t have to. So here’s the first run-down:
- We are friends with Angela, whom we have known since high school. Lurves Angela!
- Angela met Sean Astin (she got his book signed and a picture taken with him for her Christmas card that year.)
- He was in the “Lord of the Rings” movies with Cate Blanchet
- She is in that new movie with Brad Pitt (“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, fyi Michelle)
- Brad Pitt was in “Interview with a Vampire” with Tom Cruise
- Tom Cruise was in “A Few Good Men” with… Kevin Bacon.
Dang but that’s fun. But that’s not all! Here’s another one:
- We were taught by Ms. Ray in high school (she was my favorite teacher!)
- Ms. Ray’s cousin (maybe 2nd cousin) was married to Tom Selleck (I remember when she called him Cousin Tom and was very impressed) (I was too, Michelle)
- Tom Selleck was on “Friends” with Courtney Cox (He was “Richard”, remember?? I loved the scene where he and Ross were waiting impatiently for Monica and Rachel to fight over the last remaining condom in the apartment)
- Courtney Cox was in the “Scream” movies with Neve Campbell
Neve Campbell was in “Wild Things” (Naaaaaasty movie) with… Kevin Bacon.
So tell me. How are you seperated from Kevin Bacon? Do you have the brain-power to do one of these? If so, you gotta share with the class.
