    Default 7 Degrees of Wikipedia

    Each person tries to follow the path the person before them set out. You start with a beginning article on Wikipedia and an ending article. It should take no more than seven links to get to the ending article. If you think you have it figured out, list the links you clicked on and then set out your own challenge.

    For example, if Player One starts us out with:
    Dog
    Munich massacre

    Then Player Two might respond with:
    Dog
    Bering Strait
    Semyon Dezhnyov
    Soviet Union
    Olympic Games
    Munich massacre

    I'll begin with an easy one:
    The Crying Game
    Michelle Pfeiffer

    You failed to plot your links, though.
