See if you can keep up... Or 6 degrees of Robert Downy Jr...

OK, I know this isn't a stretch, and I know it happens all the time, but I still find it interesting, and I am the one writing this blog so I guess I have the say on it...

So I have watched some movies lately and something struck me once again, just how interwoven Hollywood is and how we are to believe so few people are so many characters. Here is how it goes... I was watching Iron Man, which stars Robert Downy Jr. (And Gweneth, who is married to Chris who's band recently released an album which I have been listening too... but that is not the focus here, just a related tangent). Terrence Howard is also in Iron Man... I then saw Terrence Howard (who is referenced on a Common album by the way... but that is neither here nor there, except that Common was also in the movie Wanted...) Anyway, Terrence Howard was just spotted in a movie with Jodie Foster, The Brave One... And then Jodie was in a movie with Denzel, Inside Man, which has the same initials, sylables and last name as Iron Man... starring Robert Downy Jr... who was spotted at the end of The Incredible Hulk... Sorry, that last one was a stretch (actually, this whole post is a stretch), but Robert hasn't been in a ton of movies in the last few years so give me a break...

It is also weird that I seem to run into movie star chains like this on occasion and I seem to notice it every time so I just felt like I had to mention it, you know, put it out there...

Anyway, China just tied the US in water polo so I better go cheer. My country needs me...
