[ForrestGump]

21. Two

Tom Cruise/Steven Spielberg/Christopher Guest - Kevin Bacon

I didn't think I could do better than three -- family members in 'the business' have met or worked with a vast number of movie actors, including some (Dustin Hoffman, Jack Nicholson, etc) who worked with Kevin Bacon -- but most of the 'celebrities' I've met have been on the musical side, not from film or TV. The only three-degree claim to fame I could come up with by myself was Dwight Yoakum via Sharon Stone, which I thought was gonna be my best shot 'til I remembered Spielberg and A Few Good Men. I met the three dudes above at musical events (just said hello, in passing, when they looked at me...I don't actually know any of them), Cruise and Spielberg (talking to each other -- a two-for-one!) backstage after a Paul McCartney concert and Christopher Guest (in Nigel Tufnel garb!) backstage at the American Music Awards.

22. 3 or 4 depending on how you count...

me -> Morgan Freeman -> Tim Robbins -> Kevin Bacon

[KamaAina]

23. He lives in NYC, so a whopping 59

a frigid 21 in the Big Apple (in March?!), while we just hit 80 here on the island for the first time in about a week.

Wait a minute. Wrong kind of degree. In that case, one, as Mr. Bacon seems not to have attended college.

Oh. Not that kind of degree, either. Never mind.
