Reminds me of an old joke.

A man of a particular ethnic persuasion was having a disussion with his young son concerning ethics. The son asked him what is meant by the term "moral dilemma". The father answered as follows:

"Abie my son, you know that your Uncle Herbie and I are partners in a clothing store on the lower east side?"

"Yes Pappa, a fine store it is!" replied the son.

"Well son, here's an example of a moral dilemma. Imagine a rich shiksah from the upper east side comes into our store and buys a hat for her husband."

"OK Pappa."

"Now imagine the hat costs $40."

"Oh pappa, that is an expensive hat!"

"Yes Abie, it is. Now imagine the woman pays with two twenty dollar bills and leaves with her purchase."

"Oh Pappa, I do hope she comes again!!"

"Yes my son. Now Abie, imagine that as you put the money in the cash register you notice that there's a $100 bill stuck between the twenties."

"Oi gevald Pappa, how could that be??!"

"Yes my son, it is terrible. And now here's the dilemma: Do you tell your Uncle Herbie about the extra 100?"

WTH is a shiksah?
