Acceleration

I was expecting Netflix today, it didn't show up. Tomorrow, expect reviews of Ringu, Oldboy, and Annie Hall. Today, no movies, though I did watch two episodes of the greatest show on television. No, seriously, it is the greatest show on tv. It's like the West Wing in space, but back when Aaron Sorkin was in control. Seriously, I'm not one to watch the crappy sci-fi shows where its just people with crap glued to their heads.

So, instead of Netflix, my Roll-A-Bout arrived today. It's pretty funky, like a one-legged scooter. Or like a high-speed step-stool. It has no turning radius, you must pick it up to turn it even a degree. Tomorrow, a wheelchair. I didn't want one, but my physical therapy nurse said it was free. She suggested I park it in my living room, and just use it as a comfortable chair with arms and a leg rest. I should have had insurance by me something more my speed, also with arms and a leg rest.

Oh, and on the 6 degrees, you guys are cheating. Erin, you can't use television shows, and you shouldn't use movies that aren't out. Dave, it's barely legitimate to use Directors.

The correct answer is:
Kyle M to Gina Gershon (Showgirls, oh yes I did!)
Gina Gershon to Tom Cruise (Cocktail)
Tom Cruise to Kevin Bacon (A Few Good Men)
Three degrees.

Your homework for tonight: Connect Dirk Benedict to Kevin Bacon. I'll allow television shows that have starred Dirk Benedict.

Okay. I change my answer if you'll allow it...

Kyle M to Dennis Hopper (Blue Velvet)

Dennis Hopper to Chris Penn (True Romance)

Chris Penn to Kevin Bacon (Footloose)

I've got to at least tie on that one...

Who is Dirk Benedict???

[Ben]

Dirk Benedict to Dwight Schultz (A-Team)
Dwight Schultz to James Cromwell (Star Trek: First Contact)
James Cromwell to Donald Sutherland (Space Cowboys)
Donald Sutherland to Kevin Bacon (JFK)
