3-4 steps to Kevin Bacon fwiw. Several paths.

I have multiple and assorted links to a few significant people in our society: Starbucks, Christies, Borders, HighRanger, Tippi Hedren, GE, shadowgov, and probably more if it was dug into. Maybe I even talked with Gates or Seinfeld or Dempsy or Van Winklen or other aficionados here on PPOT.
Who knows? It all don't mean squat at the end of the day. Life is short anyways.

Rubbing elbows with rich and famous is cool, but it don't put a dime in my pocket.
That is on me.
And whatever the public image, the upper crust all snore and fart same as the next guy in line ("the king and the pawn return to the same box at the end of the game"), and they all have worked upwards to get get where they are now.
