Always check your child's homework...

I received this in an e-mail today. I thought I'd share it with you for a laugh!




Here's the reply the teacher received the next day:
Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last
week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single
shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that
several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture
doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me
selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly
before she turns it in.

Sincerely, Mrs. Smith

That's hysterical. I've seen the cartoon and the caption before, but never the letter. Too funny.

PS What a fun surprise to see my new button in your sidebar. I think you're the very first one to try it out. Thank you!
