Six Degrees of Separation

I have always been intruiged by the idea of six degrees of separation - the theory that anyone on the planet can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances that has no more than five intermediaries. (The theory was first proposed in 1929 by the Hungarian writer Frigyes Karinthy in a short story called "Chains.")

It is of course even more intersting if you can link up with someone famous and I bet that most people can. My claim to Degree of Separation fame is that I once worked beside someone whose neice was Kylie Minogue's PA - so I think that that would make me two degrees of separation away from Kylie. Apparently her PA had the same size of feet as Kylie and got all her cast off shoes - how good would that be?

Anyway - has anyone else out there in blogland got a claim to degrees of separation fame?
