How Everyone In The World Knows Everyone Else

This isn't my theory, but I do believe it. Everyone in the world knows everyone else. Not personally mind you, but if they went through the right channels of the people they do know personally, they could meet anyone in the world they want to. Everyone in the world knows someone else, and that person knows someone else, and so on and so on until the chain ends up to you. How about an example.

Okay, this is a real one. I'm going to connect me to John Travolta, Uma Thurman, and Samuel L. Jackson. I know this guy who my dad worked for, and this guy came over to my house one night because he likes the New York Knicks, and my dad likes the Bulls, so anyway, he came over to watch the Bulls play the Knicks in a play-off game a few years ago. Well, to get to the point, this guy's brother Lawrence worked with Quentin Tarantino and produced Pulp Fiction (on a side note, he also produced Jackie Brown, but i'm not talking about that movie now, so i'll move on). Since he knows his brother Lawrence, and his brother knows Quentin Tarantino, then he could, if he doesn't already, know John Travolta, Uma Thurman, and Samuel L. Jackson. Sooooo..... to make a long story short, if i wanted to I could meet them, and maybe really hit it off with them, and just go live with them for the rest of my life or until I get motivated and decide to start take care of myself, but given the choice, I would much rather live with them. I bet they throw some wild parties.

Now, back to the subject. Do you see the point I'm trying to make? If you really wanted to then you could meet anyone, and become a very influential person. Imagine meeting someone of so much importance and them falling in love with you, and then you can make them do your every bidding. You could have the president of the US for a slave, but I don't know if he'll let you take him away from his Dominatrix, but ya never know.

If I had a choice, I would choose to have the most influence with the Ruler of China. They have a ton of nuclear weapons over there and if someone makes you mad you could just nuke them. I would settle tons of disputes, and people would come to me to have me judge their cases and to plead with me not to blow up their small peace-loving nation that doesn't have anything with which to defend itself. I think that's sort of a Darth Vader complex there, but wouldn't it be neat? Just think about it for a minute. Chris Kelsey January 30, 1998
