my Kevin Bacon number is 4??

[topaz]

Inspired by cruiser.

When I was six, I appeared in a television commercial for Peach Hi-C with my father, rikpierce.

Dad appeared in a couple of TV spots with Jim Murtaugh, and on an episode of The Bob Newhart Show. He also had a part once on Sanford and Son, though I don't know which one.

The Oracle of Bacon declares that Jim, Newhart and Redd Foxx each has a Bacon number of 2.

That gives me an honest-to-god, totally legit Bacon number of 4.

I swear this had never occurred to me before.

Edit: Would you believe my mother's google-fu beats mine? She found a reference to Dad's episode of Sanford and Son on MSN Movies.

Edit 2: My understanding of the Kevin Bacon rules is that you actually have to have appeared on screen with your link. Just like Erdös numbers only apply to people who have published papers with Paul Erdös. So I don't think I have given everybody else on my friends list a Bacon number of 5. Sorry!
