"....There are Mysteries
worth solving and
Stories worth telling.
The Best and Bravest
Man I know – and on
top of that he actually
knows How to Do Stuff.
(John lowers his head and
chuckles with embarrassment.)
... except Wedding-
planning and serviettes –
he’s rubbish at those --"
Merry Christmas, Leo McGarry | The West Wing
A recent college graduate,
Aaron Sorkin was working as
a bartender at NY Broadway
shows, and wrote
A Few Good Men
entirely on cocktail napkins
during Act 1 of
"La Cage Aux Folles."
According to Sorkin, "...you work
during the walk-in, and
you work during intermission.
But you're not doing anything
during the first act, and there's
an unlimited supply
of cocktail napkins."
