" We are, all of us, seperated by only six degrees to everybody else in the world"

(I forget which movie, an old lady speaks the above)

" Three years ago a trio of Pennsylvania college boys with too much time on their hands and a bottle of Southern Comfort came up with the game Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. Craig Fass, Brian Turtle and Mike Ginelli wrote a letter to then TV talk-show host Jon Stewart, who invited them on his show to demonstrate the game. From these humble beginnings, a Web site arose, a book was published and a nationwide cult-fad was born." from the website:

I slightly more thought provoking one, but if you got sod all else to do,

You probably know this one:

Connect an actor or movie character by only (AND NO MORE THAN) six degrees to Kevin Bacon.

Example (an easy one also from the website):

here's how we connect Kevin Bacon to the Alien in Alien:

Kevin Bacon was in Footloose with Dianne Weist,

who was in The Birdcage with Gene Hackman,

who was in The Firm with Holly Hunter,

who was in Copycat with Sigourney Weaver,

who was in Alien with the Alien.

Geddit?

Here´s one to get the ball rolling:

Connect ol' Kev to Christopher Walken

What? are you all so busy talking on the TG=BG Forum that you don´t have time for... YOU GO OTHER LADIEEE!! YOOOU JAI-DAM !! I NO LOVE YOU NO MORE !!!

Play.com (a DVD supplier) used to give free DVD's away with this game... The way thier site is you can follow links for other movies with this actor or director etc..

I guess they thought that with all the browsing they would make enough sales.
