everybody knows the 'six degrees of kevin bacon' game, but i bet no one reading this blog is nerdy enough to have wiki-ed it. it's really fascinating stuff: the highest finite Bacon Number (the number of degrees of separation between bacon and an actor or actress) is 8, and only 12% of actors or actress, dead or alive, cannot be linked to him at all.
big deal kevin bacon. inspired by a recent email from a devoted follower of this hear blog (which among other things pointed out that the ending of the vid i made for under the bridge was cliche) i am declaring myself more 'in the know' than bacon-n-bits.
examples?
my friend jelly's mom almost went on a date with tom petty when she was 13.
tom petty's Hear Mars Number: 3
i went to high school with the son of Foreigner's bassist
degrees separating me from being cold as ice: 3
my english amigo becs' friend is cousins with 'one of those guys from daft punk'
one of those guy's from daft punk (please let it be thomas!)'s HMN: 3
i went ice skating on the same rink as kevin bacon when i was in elementary school
bacon, the ball's in your court you smug bastard
additional note: went to five guys burgers and fries today. every other fast food chain in the universe, your move.
