Palin attends Purim carnival: After Alaska, Brooklyn beckons.

Nome, Alaska--Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska announced today that she plans to move with her entire family to the Boro Park section of Brooklyn once her current term as governor expires.

“During my campaign for vice president, people were so critical of my daughter for being pregnant at such a young age,” Palin explained. “But in Boro Park, no one will criticize her. Girls there are married and pregnant when they’re barely teenagers. I understand many of the young brides are registered for wedding gifts at Toys R Us.”

She said she plans to support her family by selling the fashionable sheitels she helped popularize during her campaign, and is adding one for infant girls, The Post-Natal Sheitl.

In a related development, after completing a five-year analysis of the wig crisis that erupted in 2004 over the idolatrous use of Indian hair in sheitls, a panel of rabbis has announced a plan to manufacture a new style of wig called “The Shmurah Sheytl.”

“It’ll work just like shmurah matzah,” spokeswoman Sura Shmata explained. “Fine European hair will be watched from the time it is cut until it is sewn into the wig. That way, there can be no possibility of idolatrous Indian hair somehow finding its way into the mix.”

The rabbis plan to price the new line of sheitls just as they price shmurah matzah, starting at $1,500 an ounce.
