Laugh a little
It's not what you think
It was a hot Saturday evening in the summer of 1957 and Moshe has a date with Peggy Sue Levy. He arrives at her house and rings the doorbell. The door opens and Sarah, Peggy Sue's mother, warmly welcomes Moshe in. "Shalom Moshe. Peggy Sue will be down soon. So nu? What are you and my daughter planning to do tonight?" she asks him.
"Oh, we'll probably go to Hampstead and grab a bite to eat at Minky's Kosher Deli," replies Moshe. "Then we'll end up by going to a local night club. We love dancing."
"If it will help your evening to go well," Sarah whispers to him, "let me tell you that my Peggy Sue likes to screw."
"Oy gevalt, Mrs Levy. I'm totally surprised to hear that," says Moshe looking incredulous. "Are you joking?"
"Of course I'm not joking," replies Sarah. "As a matter of fact, my Peggy Sue would screw all night if she could."
"Well, thanks for the tip," says Moshe, as he begins thinking about alternate plans for the evening.
"Have fun, children," Sarah says a few minutes later as they are leaving.
Two hours later, a completely disheveled Peggy Sue bursts into her house and slams the front door behind her.
"What's the matter, bubbeleh?" asks Sarah.
"The Twist, mummy!" Peggy Sue angrily replies. "The dance is called the Twist!"
