A whole gaggle of Jewish ladies at a party were discussing the problem
of one of their daughters, who looked very much as though she were
planning to marry a Gentile boy. Everyone was disturbed about it, and I
could not help interrupting.
"Why not?" said I. "Let her marry a Gentile boy. I'm all in favor of
Jewish girls marrying Gentile boys."
"Why?" chorused the women.
And I said, "Because why should the Jewish boys have all the bad
luck?"
