Six Degrees...

[John L]

If you haven't heard, there is a game, the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. I just realized I now enjoy a Bacon Index of 3, Janis Has a Bacon Index of TWO!....

I am the webmaster for Janis Ian

Who Attended an awards Ceremony with Kyra Sedgwick

Who is married to Kevin Bacon...

More on this...

Yes, Kyra is married....oh well.

Based on this theory I have:

A Springsteen number of 2.

I took guitar lessons from Jon Landau as a kid.

Jon Landau is Springsteen's manager.

I have yet to figure out my Kevin Bacon number... has he done any Nora Ephron movies? That would help. I went to school with her sister.

Cool. I have a Janis index of one! I met her after a few concerts and during an LRC.

Also I have an Agnes-, Marjan-, Margay-, Oak Kitten-, Gisli-, Annette-, Corita-, Jan-, Rika & Carla-, David UK- and Machester Anne index of one!

I just realized I now enjoy a Bacon Index of 3, Janis Has a Bacon Index of TWO!....

I knew a person named Kevin once when I was in forth grade...I had bacon for breakfast yesterday... I had Canadian Bacon in Canada once but the Canadians had no idea what I was talking about (much like ordering a California Burger in California... Followed by a blank stare and the waitress saying huh???) who had no idea what I meant by Canadian Bacon... I never had Australian Bacon but Mel Gibson seems to keep getting his Bacon in a bind... So based on these facts I have no idea what my rating is...

Best to all

so then...anyone who has met Janis would have a bacon # of 3?? i don;t want to know that i could be that close...just kidding

but there's more. You met me at Janismania and I worked with Kevin (a couple of million years ago) in NYC. If I'm recalling correctly, the show was "Album" at the WPA theatre.

PS - Update is great, but miss what you/Janis are reading/listening to!

Hoops, I think all of us on this board would be 3 degrees of Kevin Bacon, and I suppose 2 degrees of anyone Janis has seen, met, sung or written about.

[aabram]

Why I don't have the faintest idea what you're talking about now :confused:

Would someone like to explain to a tired brain..... :o

[Dee]

Kevin Bacon, no.

Six degrees of Porky Pig, definitely. :p

[DaveM]

Gosh, all of the Maniacs must have a very low number for pretty much any celebrity imaginable, including some who are no longer with us. I mean....how many folks have a Jimi Hendrix/Janis Joplin index of TWO any more?

And Leslie, you may have actually LOWERED Janis' Kevin Bacon number. I trust she is suitably impressed.

Since my uncle was once assistant director of the FBI, I have presumably had a Janis number of two for some time. As he was acquainted with every President and underling for quite some time, the same applies to several White House occupants including the current unpleasantness, all of the Maniacs now have a G.W. Bush index of three.

You'll have to get used to it, I'm afraid. It doesn't wash off.

davem,jimi and janis joplin...cooooooool

ok, I think I have it.......

1. I have met Janis (hugged her a few times!) Lucky me!!

2. Janis's webmaster is John L.

3. John L. met Kyra Sedgwick

4. Kyra is married to KEVIN BACON!!!!!


Four degrees of seperation????? I never thought I would a degree of seperation to Kevin Bacon.

[SongDragon]

Nope... Janis met Kyra is how it works...

So...

1.) I've met (and hugged, and talked to) Janis, a few times.

2.) Janis met (or was just at the same function as?) Kyra Sedgewick.

3.) Kyra Sedgewick is married to Kevin Bacon.

Three degrees.

Rather odd...

But that means you all have only two degrees of separation from Rodney Dangerfield. I met him, when I was little, in an elevator.
