Amazing page

Keep up the good work And keep sharing the love and light out there

Kind regards Kevin Bacon

Anybody know if this is the man himself? If not, it's quite amusing, but I don't want to reply and open myself up to getting scammed or something. If it's him, I'd feel pretty bad not replying. Either way, I'm tickled.

UPDATE: Thanks for helping me sort this out. Still funny as shit.

First of all, I always loved this game in college. When my wife casually mentioned, when we first started dating, that she had the same professor as Harrison Ford, I almost fainted, realizing I could finally connect myself.

I'm married to my wife, Mayte, who had a college philosophy professor who also taught Harrison Ford (and flunked him, by the way). Harrison Ford was in The Fugitive with Tommy Lee Jones, who was with Kevin Bacon in JFK. (I love how great JFK is for this game, by the way). My wife still doesn't get why I'm so excited.

I met Dan Ackroyd in Concord, CA in 2008. Dan Ackroyd was in Grosse Pointe Blank with JohnCusack. John Cusack was in Being John Malkovich with Sean Penn. Sean Penn was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon.

Anyone?

Playing a little loose with the rules of the game:

Myself - Coolio - Michelle Pfeiffer - Jack Nicholson - Kevin Bacon

Hear me out.

Kevin Bacon recently starred in the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. (Which already reduced a lot of Bacon Factors, I'm sure.) In the special, he was watching the movie Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians was made famous by Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Sooooooo, should Kevin Bacon be linked to every MST3K victim by virtue of his newfound association with Santa Claus Conquers the Martians? Thus, making the movie world even smaller? (MST3K did a lot of dubbed versions of foreign films. Especially Italian produced rip-offs of Hollywood films.)

Thomas was in Thomas and the magic railway with Alec Baldwin and Alec Baldwin was in She’s having a baby with Kevin Bacon

He did a movie based on a story about my cousin Rex. It's not very close to what happened but it's a small film called foot loose. Edit: you probably dont believe me but my dads grandmother had a sibling who had a kid and that was Rex. Yeah my family on that side is from Oklahoma Texas area. Pretty cool.

Hi I have my associate degree in computer applications. I have over 75 credits all together I’ve tried to finish up my bachelors but there’s nothing that I like at that level plus I found the upper undergraduate classes difficult with having three kids, And I can’t do full time and part time I literally need another 3 years and a half to finish.I’m currently working on my licensed hearing aid specialist and was thinking of doing another associate degree in either health science or public health it’s cheaper more convenient, I’ll be done faster. Or should I just stay with my computer applications degree and my hearing aid specialist. I’m struggling with making a decision any advice please. If anyone knows if A bachelors degree is preferred to be a hearing specialist.
