Casting Call Day 5 – Ed
Here we are, Day 5 of the Scoob Casting Challenge – and the dreaded Eye of Sauron steadies its gaze on another poor soul. To date, we have successfully cast the roles of Mookie, Joe and Andi. Of course, what is past is prologue. It’s time we come out swinging at the heavy hitters.
Today I target… me (so yes, that heavy hitters line was a veiled fat joke). Oh, woah is me!!!
Background
I’m a tough guy to nail down. I began my life living with my parents in Malden, MA. After a suspicious fire claimed our first floor portion of a triple decker – my family moved one town over to Everett, MA. My dad figured, if education didn’t take, I could always earn a decent living operating a crystal meth lab. We lived in our second apartment before another suspicious fire leveled that apartment. My... Continue reading »
Casting Call Day 3 – Andi
We come to Day 3 of the Scoob Casting challenge. Thus far, we have successfully cast the roles of Mookie and Joe. Remember – this isn’t a popularity contest. This whole insidious plot is designed to knock these people down a few pegs from their lofty perch above the rest of us common folk. If you feel Mook would be best played by Leatherface, use the Comment section below and let him have it.
Today we audition Andi.
Background
Andi was born and raised in the bustling metropolis of West Bridgewater, MA – a town which sees an equal one donut shop per cop ratio. The town employs 13,125 police officers. Andi showed real musical talent early in her life - migrating from lead roles in school musicals to touring around the world with the Bridgewater State College Alumni Chorale and culminating in a rousing renditi...

Casting Call Day 2 – Joe
Here we are – Day 2 of the Scoob Casting challenge. I have added a few more people to the list so this will stretch a little further. Remember – this isn’t an exact science. Feel free to post your ideas on who these meatbags actually resemble.
Today we tackle Joe.
Once again, for those new to this, be sure to check out the primer on how this daily post works. Our Day 1 contestant, Mookie, can be found here.
Background
Joe was born and raised in the one stop light frontier town of Granby, MA where he spent his formulative years aiding the founding fathers in their quest for fire. He enrolled in the University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 1892 (at that time, Southbridge Agricultural College) – where he studied bull neutering and quantum physics. In 1993, he graduated RA Emeritus (Resident Assistant for Life). Post gr... Continue reading »
Casting Call Day 1 – Mookie
To kick off the Scooby Casting challenge, I decided we needed to open larger than life. What better personality to start with than the guy who consistently vaults the velvet ropes to earn appearance time in most every Blog I write. Hey, I’m just angling to make Mook a household name – anything to bump TomKat off these pages.
For those looking for a primer on how this daily post works, read the post directly below this by scrolling down or clicking here. All others, let’s commence with the Mookie MASH.
Background
Mookie was born and raised in Turners Cove, MA – home of the Green Wave – a mascot which is just slightly a notch tougher than the Middleboro Morning Dew. Mookie attended the University of Massachusetts, Amherst where he majored in Women’s Studies. Realizing quickly that this was not the anatomy class he ... Continue reading »
