good lord, i can’t get enough of the oracle … feel like a dog on the arm of a new sofa when i’m at this site! …oh, the point - - now that kerry has picked that what’s-his-name guy for veep, i was just wondering why he didn’t work that whole kevin bacon connection, since we know that kevin is highly influential in international politics - and i just want to add to that original piece a little factoid overlooked in the kevin bacon/saddam discussions moving around major hollywood circles: kevin was in Live from Baghdad in 2002, with tom foley, dick cheney, and george bush as well as bernard shaw (cnn anchorman who interviewed saddam).

you gotta go back a little for this one, like way back to when kerry was at that anti-vietnam rally in 1970 with jane fonda (in that particular picture he’s neither the cool hippie nor that skynrd fan on the right, but rather the squinty guy behind her who’s like, ‘dudes, i got hurt three times wicked bad and now i’m totally down on riverboats, plus i need some alone time with jane’).. and of course, Jane Fonda was in Searching for Debra Winger (2002, it sucked) with Meg Ryan…and meg was in In the Cut (2003, mostly sucked) with Kevin Bacon... that gives kerry a solid bacon number of 3…though as described above, bush has a bacon number of only 1, so it’s not too late to get kevin bacon into the running game for either party. this is very big news for nuevo-political types like the olsen twins (which one is the wicked skinny one again?).

…oh, and donald sutherland was at that pot-for-all rally too - donnie (mind if i call him ‘donnie’? thanks) was in in JFK (1991, overworked, and dvd should have cool alternate endings i think) with Kevin Bacon, so clearly bacon is all about the dem party thing.. as is demonstrated by his total dedication to the global warming issue… and this sutherland connection lowers kerry’s bacon number to an almost-coulda-been-bacon-for-veep number of 2…okay, okay…i really promise that i won’t get all hopped up on bacon numbers and bore you with this crap for at least another week or two ;)
