Six Degrees of Sir Francis Bacon: John Edwards

Friday, November 9th, 2007

First, read the rules of the game.

This week’s challenge is presidential hopeful John Edwards.

I was able to link John Edwards to Sir Francis Bacon in six degrees or fewer, though that shouldn’t stop you from posting a longer response, or looking for a shorter one. Entries will be accepted until midnight on Thursday, November 15.

Good luck!

And congratulations to UnixMan for winning last week’s challenge by linking Dan Aykroyd to Sir Francis Bacon in three degrees:

Dan Aykroyd > Richard Nixon > William Shakespeare > Francis Bacon

Dan Aykroyd appeared on Saturday Night Live impersonating Richard Nixon, who in high school showed a penchant for the writings of William Shakespeare, who is believed by some to be Sir Francis Bacon.
