E.J. Scott

I'm going blind. So is my brother and baby nephew. MIKE MCCARTHY made a short documentary film about his Choroideremia. Please watch it. It's great. THANKS, MIKE!!! YOU'RE MY HERO!!!BOB AARONS IS ANOTHER HERO TO ME. thanks, Bob. R.I.P., Tim.Oh boy. I don't usually like to talk about myself, but here goes. I was born on November 6th 1975. The son of a teacher named Marion and a police officer named of Edward. The younger sibling of a sister named Kristen. Later in life A brother would be born named of Kevin. And then I found MySpace. The End.Also I get along with just about everybody. And if I don't then you're probably a real dick. Sometimes I get a little quiet or shy if I feel a little uncomfortable. On the other hand if I feel really comfortable you'll wish I was more quiet. I love live theater (concerts, plays, stand up, improv) and I can always be found at The Improv Olympic West aka The Greatest Place on Earth.I like to laugh a lot and like people that like that too. That makes sense right? Sometimes I'm goofy, but I'm basically a good guy. Except I hate children, animals, old people and minorities. (Just kidding. Did I mention I think I'm funny?)I don't do drugs, in fact it's been about ten years since I've smoked pot. But I love beer. Not big on hard liquor, but I'll have the occassional shot. I don't watch or involve myself in any type of sports, but I can get into a game if I'm stuck watching one. I don't read the newspapers, I do watch news on occassion. If I read something it would likely be a Stephen King novel. He's awesome. I believe that not smoking pot or being into sports has hurt my social life. I recently quit smoking cigarettes (Sept '05) and am doing okay. I'm not very religious, even though I was raised Catholic. I believe in being a good person because it's the right thing to do. I watch Oprah and Dr Phil a lot. The people I love the most in the world are my nephew, Liam, my brother, Kevin and my cousin Ryan. I think comic books should be read in schools. I was going to be a comic book illustrator until I decided to go into acting. My number 1 priority right now is to find a cure for Choroideremia. I'm pretty open minded about most things - or at least I try hard to be. I try not to judge people and hope they don't judge me. I'm never bored. I hate my neighbors. I don't like hearing what's going on in other peoples apartments when I'm trying to relax. I don't like driving in LA. Everybodys on a fucking cell phone, it makes me crazy. I try to stay positive cuz being negative is too damn easy. I have a huge crush on Eva Longoria, Rachel McAdams and the love of my life Keri Russell. I also like Emmy Rossum. I use to like Katie Holmes til she lost her damn mind. Oh yeah! I'm on MySpace too much. I'd like to travel and do adventurous things before I die. I don't want to die ever. I don't have cable and my internet connection sucks. I love NetFlix!!! I don't "network", but I like making new friends. I'm more of a dog person than cat, but I don't want any pets right now, maybe ever. I'm allergic to cats. I have no piercings or tats. I'm boring in a fun way. I don't wear cologne. Or Jewelry (except for the occassional watch). I'm addicted to pizza and Mountain Dew. I'm learning to appreciate things and people better. I live in a tiny studio (aka "bachelor"). I don't have Tivo. I love listening to Howard Stern on Sirius. I bump my head a lot. I'm a loner, but not in a cool sounding way. I fucking love the Muppets. I don't cook. I like to keep things simple. I don't really go to beaches or night clubs, mainly because of my Choroideremia condition, but also cuz it's just not my comfort zone. Trying to convince people to be positive is really difficult, but I'll keep trying. I'm impressed by real people. By "real" I mean people who aren't fake or phony. (It's sad I have to explain that.) I like approachable people and I try to be approachable too. I like to compliment somebody if I feel they deserve it and sometimes even if they don't. It's part of my spread the love campaign. I'm getting more and more tired of haters. (Even though I can sometimes hate people). I bite my nails. Cartoons are cool. I won the Bass Ale Comedy Festival in NYC in 1999. I'm still holding on to that little bit of glory. Hey what's wrong with porn? I like to write when I actually do. I'm making a pop album. (thats a joke). I'm a good friend. I'm a good brother. I'm a good uncle. I'm a good cousin. I'm a good son. I'd make a good super hero. I have almost no hair on my arms, yet the rest of me has man hair. I drive a Hyundai Sonata 2001. I'm a bit clumsy. I have a kick fucking ass DVD collection. I grew up idolizing Michael J. Fox, Scott Bakula's Sam character on Quantum Leap and Richard Dean Anderson's MacGyver character. I'm not a big fan of sea food. I've never been shot. I'm gellin' with Dr. Scholl's. I've had over 30 jobs. Non actor related. Incuding working at a pet store, a 7-11, a video store, Priority Mail, a beer distributor, Newsday, Pizza Hut (4hrs), a roofer, a catering waiter, and others I can't even remember. I have one eye that is half brown on top and half green on the bottom. The other eye is all green. I have been compared to a giant teddy bear, Chewbacca, Frankenstein, a lumberjack, a trucker, but for the past eight years what I hear the most is Will Ferrell. Homeless people call me "big guy". I don't like Mayo. I have a stuffed lizard that I got from a director on a move and I love it. I say the word "awesome" a lot and that's awesome. You will almost never see me without a hat at least in public. Concerts I'd like to see.... the Rolling Stones, Elton John, Billy Joel, U2, Paul McCartney and other concerts I'll never be able to afford. I would like to learn how to play Dungeons and Dragons and Texas Hold Em. When I sit for a while then stand my knees crack. I'm not afraid of loose change. I love watching marathons of tv shows all day long. I never get bored of stuff like that. I've never seen a ghost or been possessed. My least favorite question is "What does E.J. stand for?". That makes me cringe. I'm finally on IMDB for "Soup of the Day" and another EJ Scott is taking credit. Is that fucked up or what? I'd rather like something than hate it. I'm terrible with names (right Meryl?), please don't take offense. It's heredetary. I've never eaten sushi or done Karaoke. I do laundry once a month or so. A guilty pleasure is Encino Man. I'm very open and honest or at least try to be. My life is an open book, with a few pages stuck together. Probably the most important thing to know is that I am losing my sight to an eye disease called Choroideremia. My little brother and baby nephew also have this disease. It does keep me from doing some things, but no pity party here unless you want to donate money then you can pity me all you like. www.myspace.com/choroideremia. I guess thats about it.
