Finally Getting Married
There were two Jewish woman (Ruth and Golda) walking along the street. Ruth says to Golda, “My son, Irving, is finally getting married. He tells me he is engaged to a wonderful girl, but he thinks she may have a disease called herpes.”
Golda says to Ruth, “Do you have any idea what this herpes is and can he catch it?”
Ruth answers, “No, but I am so thrilled to hear about Irving’s engagement. It’s past time he’s settled. As far as the herpes goes…who knows?”
“Well,” Golda says, “I have a very fine medical dictionary at home–I’ll look it up and call you.”
So Golda goes home, looks it up, and calls Ruth…”Ruth, keinahurra (thank goodness!), I found it. Not to worry! It says herpes is a disease of the Gentiles!!!”
