Have you heard the theory that you can find a connection between yourself and Kevin Bacon within six degrees? Something like “My brother worked at a dry cleaner, a production assistant cleaned his clothes there on Thursdays, that guy went on a date with another PA, she worked on a certain project with a director and that guy directed a movie starring Kevin Bacon.” Just imagine—you’re that close to knowing Kevin Bacon.
Here’s another diagram I created today that I find rather interesting: My little brother graduated from The Blake School (the same school I did), he had many friends, my mother sometimes gets together with their mothers for lunch, one of those mothers graduated from The Blake School, she told my mother and my mother told me that this weekend is Homecoming, which also makes it Reunion Weekend.
See? Less than eight hours ago, I found out when my 10th year high school reunion was and it was within six degrees. It would have been fewer if they’d put that information on the card the school sent me three weeks ago, but this was way more exciting.
