Первый бал алабамской Наташи Р. (боян ?)

[profi]

In the mid 1960's a US Navy cruiser put into port in Mobile, Alabama for a

week's R&R.

The first evening, the Captain was more than a little surprised to receive

the following letter from the wife of a very wealthy plantation owner and

industrialist:

Dear Captain: On Thursday will be my daughter Susan's debutante ball. I would

like you to send four well-mannered, handsome, unmarried officers. They

should arrive at 8p.m. sharp, prepared for an evening of polite Southern

conversation and dancing with lovely young ladies.

PS: No Jews.


Sure enough, at 8 p.m. on Thursday, the lady followed her butler to answer a

rap at the door which was opened by the butler.

She found in dress uniform, four handsome, exquisitely mannered and smiling

African-American naval officers.

Her lower jaw hit the floor, but pulling herself together she stammered,

"There must be some mistake."

"Madam," said the first officer, "Captain Cohen doesn't make mistakes."

PS Я честно предупредил, что это, скорее всего, таки бОян. Но - довольно симпатичный. Нехай будет !
