Great Scott!
written by: Scott C. Kaestner
To all the Scotts out there
we are a dying breed.
Nowadays for every
Dakota, River, Hudson
and Dustin there are
zero Scotts. When I am
picking up food and hear
“order for Scott” – inevitably
it’s an old guy like me. We
had a good run back in the
70’s, 80’s, and the 90’s too, we
were everywhere, we were vibrant
kicking it, doing our thing, but now
we’re just getting old with no young
bucks holding our namesake, no
one to pass the Scott baton to, no
bright future to think about, just
wake up, work, then head home
to convalesce – watch some TV
and fall asleep on the couch.
