Medlock to Coffee to La Forge to Kevin Bacon and back to Coffee

If you listen to Chris Medlock on KFAQ from 2-4 you might know that he is 100% Caffeine free (for now anyway). I briefly considered doing a blog post that personified Caffeine. Caffeine was going to implore Medlock to take it back "I'm an antioxidant Chris, I improve cognitive functions by blocking that brain-slowing adenosine"

To that end, I was reading about Caffeine on Wikipedia. Ultimately, I decided that my idea was really lame, and went on to read about Coffee. While reading about coffee I started to think about how using Wikipedia you could get from almost any topic to any other topic. I wondered if I could get from Coffee to Geordi La Forge (a fictional character in Star Trek TNG)…I did it!

Coffee -> Ethiopia -> Declaration by United_Nations -> World War II -> United Kingdom -> Winston Churchill -> Myocardial infarction -> Oxygen therapy -> Nitrogen -> Electrons -> Speed of light -> Tachyon -> Star_Trek: The Next Generation -> Geordi La Forge

Once I got there I figured I’d might as well stick with the theme of “degrees of separation” and go to from La Forge to Kevin Bacon…

LeVar Burton -> Batman: The Animated Series -> Batman -> Tim Burton -> Johnny Depp -> Platoon (film) -> Charlie Sheen -> Denise Richards -> Wild Things -> Kevin Bacon

Then I figured I’d try to get back to where I started.

Manhattan -> Wall Street -> New York Stock Exchange -> George W. Bush -> Mexico -> Brazil -> Coffee
