"So it does, so it does."
- Marc Connelly (1890-1980)
American playwright, director, producer, performer, lyricist and a member of the Algonquin Round Table, a group of New York writers, critics, actors and wits who met for lunch each day in the Algonquin Hotel.
One evening, Connelly was dining with friends when another member of the group snuck up from behind, placed his hands on top of Connelly's bald head, and said to the amusement of the other guests, "Marc, your head feels as smooth as my wife's ass." Without missing a beat, Connelly raised his hands to his head, began rubbing his own scalp, and with a wry smile, spoke the words quoted above.
