6 degrees of separation? Your brushes with celebrity?

1. I went to high school with Moira Kelly's little brother. (2 degrees)


2. I went to high school with jazz singer Jane Monheit.


3. My husband and I attended a dinner party with Rupert Hokmes (The Pina Colada Song singer)


4. I shook hands with Chuck Negron (from 3 dog night) and Spike Lee (not at the same time - haha)








I think there are a couple more, but they escape me at the moment.

Reply:Actually the way it works is not only who you connect with but who they connect with and who they connect with.





True example:


- My mother knows her state Senator well.


- Her state senator knows the president.


- The president has met the pope.





In four hops, I get to the pope.
