He should team up with Jon Hamm.

Wonder if he took a lot of “ribbing” regarding his last name while in school?

You know, offhand I can’t think of anything he’s been bad in.

Good actor, good guy. Kevin Bacon.

He reminds me of the late and great Steve Allen: Multi-talented. You have yet to “paint your masterpiece” (Oscar), Kevin, but you can be sure the _world_ respects you and your craft!

Especially we Dopers! 🙂

Let’s also don’t forget: **DMark** is the originator of this thread, and _he’s_ the one KB should recognize, if he recognizes any of us, that is!

A fine actor and musician, who still in interviews comes across as a guy you’d like to have a beer with.

No one person has ever seen Kevin Bacon and me in the same room at the same time.

OTOH, no one person has ever seen Kevin Bacon and me thousands of miles apart at the same time.

Go figure!

And no one has ever seen me and Kevin Bacon in the same room cooking bacon.

I just want to note, for the record, that I’ve never prepared food of any kind with Kevin Bacon. Not that I would have any objection to doing so, of course.

Some say that all his smoked, salted pork comes pre-cooked, and that he’s never been in the same place twice. All we know is…

He’s called **Kevin Bacon**!

Thank you, **Quasi**! You are the one who is keeping this thread alive.

I have to assume Kevin Bacon’s Google Alert is screaming SDMB to him on a regular basis. Also, with all of the people reading this, you would think with the six degrees of separation, someone who knows someone who knows someone would have mentioned to someone who might know someone who knows Kevin Bacon and suggest he read this.

Then again, perhaps he has read this and submitted our names to the authorities, as well as begun paperwork for future restraining orders.
