I just spotted this connection in my LinkedIn profile - I'm one step removed from Kevin Bacon, actor and star of Footloose



Anybody have any other shocking connections?

I haven't had a compose introduction yet. I did get a request to link with Rick Vanner. I was somewhat surprised only because I didn't think I would be someone he would want to have a link with. I'm not that important -- at least anymore -- being out of the job market for sometime. Although I felt honored; if it were legit. I accepted anyway.

LinkedIn is like a social networking site for the business world. I'm linked with Adobe employees I think.
