"The Jewish Hula"

This works better when you see it, though not when it’s done by me. My hula skills are impaired by congenitally fused hips. They simply refuse to sway.

Anyway, here are the directions, if you’d like to try this at home. There are only two of them; it’s quite easy.

(TO THE TUNE OF “ALOHA-OI”, WHICH WE TRANSPOSE INTO “ALOHA-OY”)

Hips sway Polynesically during “Aloha…”

Then, on “Oy”,

Right hand comes up, the right palm smacking smartly against forehead.

Aloha…” – smack!

Aloha…” – smack!

That’s all there is to it.

So try it, already.
