The World’s Greatest Blog

As I mentioned in my earlier post, I’m waiting for a phone call, and I don’t know if it will be the house phone or the mobile. For this reason, I can’t even go outside, and am now beginning to dread visits to the toilet in case the phone rings and I’m in there. Maybe not, but you know what I mean.

Anyway, as so often on boring occasions in front of the computer, I have given up on everything useful that I had been doing, and begun larking about on Google. After the recent name change, I had noticed a few more hits coming under new terms, so I tried a search for “Rob world views” – its pretty exciting, this site is number 3 out of 176,000,000 pages. Not bad, I thought.

Eventually though, I tried searching for my full name, Rob Scott. Nothing. What a pain. So I’ve changed my name on here. I’m sure you’ll agree that it looks extraordinarily professional and is the height of fashion.

This got me thinking. Not unlike Dave Gorman, who made a tv series about meeting other people called Dave Gorman, I decided I would dedicate a blog post to other people called Rob Scott!

So here it is!

My Homage to Other Rob Scott s around the globe

We have the following Rob Scotts online:

• Rob Scott the computer guy, from Winchester, UK. He does tend to talk in code, but is surely a stand-up guy, possessing, as he does, such a wonderful name;
• Rob Scott the painter – Rob Scott enterprises, who are experts in paint fleks and speckle effects;
• Rob Scott MD – the doctor – from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, who works for Pfizer;
• Rob Scott the footballer, who plays for Macclesfield;
• Rob Scott the guy who works in films – a film producer type lovey;
• Rob Scott ph.D the research associate – another clever Rob Scott chalked up;
• Rob Scott the geek – that’s his title, not mine;
• Rob Scott the CEO – who “brings his extensive management experience to Xelor Software.”

Hang on a second, apart from the doctor one, these could easily be my split personalities coming out… But anyway, though this is weird as hell, it is strangely compelling… on we go… We’ve also got:

• Rob Scott the fundamental shifter – What’s that? A Rob Scott who’s trying to change things? Never;
• Rob Scott the paleoanthropologist – A grand title, which fills my heart with gladness;
• Rob Scott the photographer - he loves to take a picture of a room and put the name of an architect’s website above it;
• Rob Scott the integral theorist – I don’t even know what that is. But it sounds highly charged;
• Rob Scott the economist – Chats about avoiding recessions and other such monetary stories;
• Rob Scott the TV chef - currently works for ABC in Victoria;
• Rob Scott the “proponent of the open-handed downward crunch” – not as bad as it sounds, I think it is a volleyball reference;
• Rob Scott the deliverer of daily life – he delivers life, daily;

That is enough for now, as I’ve successfully alleviated all boredom, by doing something so inane that I actually want to just do nothing for a while. Having said that, it is really funny to see what all of these other Rob Scotts are doing – and that they are also telling the world about it through the internet!

If you are a Rob Scott and would like to join the celebration, leave a comment at the bottom, and I’ll get you on board. The more the merrier! Similarly, if you are another website running Rob Scott and you like this page, link to it, you could use this as the link text:
