One of the Doggie Doo Run Run regulars was among his many jobs a racer of cars. Would not call him famous but his name does show up in pictures of various regional races.

Most of us are six degrees (or less) seperated from Kevin Bacon.

You have to be in movies though to play the Kevin Bacon game. He has been sin so many different movies of all kinds though that almost every well known actor will show up within these six degrees.

Not to belabor the pointless, but most actors would be within one or two degrees of Kevin Bacon. I am within two, for example; my second cousin was married for years to David Hasselhoff and they are friendly with Kevin Bacon.

Close enough. That counts.

Seems we're (surprisingly) quickly running out of famous TVers.

I'll bet there's a few still layin' low out there. Don't blame 'em....

There was a pretty good photographer--Debra Raskin-- who used to come to Doggie Doo Run Run who has won some various awards and the like. She visited the Villages but am not sure she ever lived here. Have not seen her though near the Villages--Oxford-- since February 2012.

"Hurricane horses" is one of hers. http://www.nationalphotoawards.com/d...stwinners.html
