6 degrees of Steve Jobs: Round 5 – Ralph Wiggum
Filed under: 6 degrees of Steve, Games, Humor, Slow News Day

Steve Jobs enjoys a unique position among technology leaders in that he has strong ties to the entertainment industry as well. Because of these ties, we feel it may be possible to link Steve Jobs to almost every famous person in history (except, oddly enough, Kevin Bacon) through a series of past events. To test this theory (and pass the time on slow news days), we have created the 6 Degrees of Steve game.
Let’s play!
Alright, Round 5 is our first attempt to link Steve Jobs to a fictional character – none other that The Simpson’s “Ralph ‘ I Bent my Wookie‘ Wiggum“.
Remember, you have to do it in 6 steps or less. Points awarded for creativity and obscurity.
Good luck!

Alright, Round 4 is going to be tough ( I hope). Can anyone link the world’s most lovable CEO (that would be Jobs) to the most hated man in the world – Osama Bin Laden?
(Well, most hated in the US, anyway).
Remember, you have to do it in 6 steps or less. Points awarded for creativity and obscurity.

6 degrees of Steve Jobs: Round 3 – John F. Kennedy

Man, Apple better release a new MacBook or something soon. This dearth of Mac-news is killing me. In order to maintain my sanity, I have been counting how many times I can dribble this basketball in an hour, and then I try to break that record. But for those of you without basketballs to dribble, we have created the “6 degrees of Steve” game to help get you through this lull.
For round 3 of the tournament, we have decided to go political on your asses, and we are throwing out the name of none other than the 35th president of the US of A. You know who I’m talkin’ ’bout, people! Give it up for Mr. John… F… Kennedy!
(Ok, maybe this basketball isn’t working after all).
So, can you link Steve Jobs to JFK in 6 steps or less? (without using the film JFK as a step?).
Good luck!
6 degrees of Steve Jobs: Round 2 – Kato Kaelin
Filed under: 6 degrees of Steve, Games, Humor, Slow News Day

Ok, Round 1 was actually pretty successful, with some fairly creative solutions. Since things are still looking a bit bleak in the way of Mac news today, let’s bring on Round 2 of our new feature “6 Degrees of Steve“.
This round features everyone’s favorite non-Ito OJ trial celebrity (from the first OJ trial, that is), Kato Kaelin. Anyone out there have the ability to link him to the almighty Steve in 6 steps or less?
Good luck!
