DiverMike 5 #10 September 14, 2012 I don't think it completely works. Clara Blandwick (Auntie Em on Wizard of oz) doesn't come up with a Bacon number, but it is 3, same as Bert Lahr (cowerdly lion). For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BIGUN 1,406 #20 September 15, 2012 Yep... I had tried him also along with the Son of Chuck Conners in the rifleman... 2 You know the fact of the matter is... Google can take any particular vertical segment of society; Engineers, Doctors, Lawyers, Skydiving, Disaster Response, Higher Education, etc. and the same would be true. We call Tulsa a Big Small town; because it has virtually one degree of separation (at most 2) if you live here. You cannot engage in conversation with someone you just met and not within five minutes figure out a common denominator and in ten found the second level if the first does not exist. It was fun.. but you owe me a Beer. No reason in particular.. just cause I think so. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Nightingale 0 #22 September 16, 2012 I have a bacon number... not "google-able" though... I was on TV with Michael Crawford, who has a bacon number of 2, so mine would be 3. They credited the choir's name, rather than us as individuals, but it is in IMDB and all that. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242681/ Just googling random celebrities and bacon number, I couldn't come up with anyone higher than 2.
