You can call me Noi! This blog consists of my thoughts. I am just a simple person with BIG dreams! Like the charcoal, hot pressure and extreme heat must be present in order to create a Diamond. I am in the exact same process.

Guest Posting by Scooter McGavin! / Tuesday, July 18, 2006 @ 11:44 PM
Today is a special day because for the first time here at 'Voicing My Thoughts!', I have a special guest blogger. Applause please! He has been patiently bidding week after week and I just wanted to make up for the long wait. Initially I thought Scooter's blog was about golf as well, haha, thanks to the green grass as background. Turns out, Scooter's blog is so much more than what it seems. Moral of the story, never judge a blog by its layout template.
Therefore, I have invited him specially to write about what his blog is really all about. For now, read on..............................................
Hello ladies and gentlemen. Noi has been kind enough to take up a post over here to let you know about a little more about my blog, Scooter McGavins 9th Green. The name stems from an old college nickname from a Scooter McGavins 9th Green, guy who, much like me, saw Happy Gilmore one too many times. My longtime dream was to open up a sports bar and name it Scooter McGavins, but it taking the name on my blog will have to do for now. The 9th Green part of the name just came from not wanting to name it 'Scooter McGavins Blog.' That seemed too bland so I took a somewhat obscure reference from the movie, it the place where Shooter sent Happy for a little hazing ritual, to jazz thing up. Unfortunately with the name there has been more than a few that have mistaken it for a golf blog.
The blog instead is an entertainment blog, but not of the salacious kind. So if you are interested with finding out whom Lindsay Lohan is dating this week, this may not be the blog to do (although in a measure of full discloser, every time I go over to my sisters house I check out her subscription to Us Weekly for that very purpose). Everyday I post about different genres of entertainment including music, television, movies, sports, and politic (which I occasionally find entertaining). For the most part, these are reviews and analysis of various events.
I do run two special posts every month. The first of every month I induct some form of entertainment, whether it be an album, movie, television show or video game into the Scooter Hall of Fame. It must have been a decade since it was released and something that has deep meaning to me. To check out all the inductees, scroll down to the Terror Alert Scale link on my sidebar and the SHoF is at the bottom. Also the link shows all the reviews I have ever done. The second monthly special event is my Lyrics Quiz that I run on the fifteenth of every month. You just missed out on my latest one, so be sure to look out for the next one if you are a music buff.
Another segment that I am most likely known for in the Blogosphere, but is currently on hiatus is my weekly Toss Up between the televisions shows Lost and Veronica Mars. The genesis of this came last summer when I declared them the two best shows on television only for the networks put them on at the at the same timeslot. It is possibly this very running segment that landed me a trip to San Diego this past February to the set of Veronica Mars (I am still waiting for my invite to the set of Lost in Hawaii) to interview cast and crew. To add to the celebrity exposure, I also got to participate in a chat with a childhood idle Denis Leary. I recently also got contacted by someones 'People' so I am hoping that turns into an interview or something even cooler.
Again I would like to thank Noi for letting me patrol her sidebar for the week and hopefully if you have not already, you will check out the 9th Green. And maybe you stopped by once and did not care for what you saw, maybe you will give me a second chance (and for those put off by the grass background, may I suggest subscribing to you favorite feed reader as I have numerous one you can subscribe straight from my blog).
Thanks again everyone,
Scooter McGavin
