My wife went to school with Sandra Bullock, so 2 degrees. A former boss went to high school with Kirstie Alley, 2 degrees. I produced a CNN reporter who is 1 degree from almost everybody in DC. I worked with former congressman and actor Fred "Gopher" Grandy, so 1 degree from him, he knows Bush, who knows the Saudi king, who knows Dlish's friend, who knows Dlish's, so that's 5. In fact, living in the DC area and having worked in the media, I'm 1 step from Bush in several ways, but have only seen his house from the outside. The bastard.

I'm 2 degrees from Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin. 1 degree from George Noory and Laura Ingraham.

I'm also 1 degree from John Denver, but he's dead. I also work for Bruce Hornsby. So I'm one degree from him and 2 from the Grateful Dead.
