Scott

About Me

I'm Scott. I'm 25, have boyish good looks, and blond curly hair that tends to look like a giant golden cotton ball. I like to write, I like to laugh. Many times I laugh while I write. I'll be somewhere, writing and chuckling to myself, and people will think I've got a brain disease.I'm going to be a doctor someday. It's going to be really hard because I can't take anything seriously. I'll be a patient's room telling him he has inoperable cancer: "Doctor Allen, that's horrible. Why are you laughing?" "I'm sorry," I'll say, "I was thinking of a Far Side calendar. Well, good luck with the cancer. Gosh, that sure sucks. You know what will cheer you up? Far Side calenders. Works for me."That's why I won't have a profitable practice.
