Snowday reminder to check your homework

In an e-mail I received this morning (and showed on Good Morning Maryland at 9am), this picture was followed by a desperate explanation from a mother to her daughter’s teacher. 

Look at the picture for a moment, then read the mother’s letter below.  I have taken the names out to protect their privacy:

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. …(Mother)
