Post subject: Six Degrees of Separation |

Thought a game might be fun for the new peeps on the board, and maybe get some old people chatting again. What game is more classic than six degrees of separation?
Since we're going for "classic", let's start with that ham-fisted actor, the pork product:
Kevin Bacon
- to -
Jamie Lee Curtis |

| Whenever my friends play this game (which I never partake in, because I suck) they forbid True Romance, because everyone is in that movie. |

Yeah...but they're kind of the cement to a game like this. In fact...that's how it started. Kevin Bacon was in EVERYTHING back when this started.

to
Harrison Ford |
