Muenkel 0 #1 March 14, 2002 You all understand the concept of six degrees of seperation. Who can you link yourself to? Mine is the Queen of England.Me, met and spoke with Elton John, He was friends with Princess Diana, and she of course was the Queen's Daughter in Law.I guess with this concept, the connection with Elton John would give me 6 degrees of seperation with alot of famous people.Skydivers...they're just plain cool!Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChromeBoy 0 #18 March 14, 2002 I do tend to make people laugh a lot. Especially in the air. It's all about having a good time! Pete I still remember the look on your face when you piloted the 182 on your first jump run. We opened the door and you looked a little nervous. But hell, the dz hired you to be the pilot and 2 days later you told them you wanted to be a skydiver instead. We corrupted you from that point on.

SpeedRacer 1 #22 March 14, 2002 what would make this more challenging is if you confined yourself to people who really know you, not just someone you shook hands with once & would never recognize you againSpeed Racer"Fill your hand, you son-of-a-bitch!"

scottbre 0 #24 March 15, 2002 Well any of us who knows Michele pretty much has all of Hollywood covered. 20 million bathtubs can't be wrong. . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lummy 4 #25 March 15, 2002 couldn't you pretty much cover anybody in the world within 6 degrees?Ya know if you think about thisSay I know 100 (conservative estimate) people in my life time, who each know 100 people. So in basic terms it would be 100 to the 6th powerSo that would cover 1 trillion people. Current world population is about 6 billion give or take a few sheep...So it is safe to say that I know EVERYONE within 6 degrees :)Make up your own ending,let me know just how you feel....
