Reporters Notebook (gettysburg Times-02/23/08): "Strippers"

While talking to people Sunday morning prior to church, seated in front and behind my family’s traditional pew, I made eye contact with a relative.
“Enjoy the scripture,” I said, seemingly thinking that our brief conversation had concluded.
Wrong.
The lass looked dumbfounded.
“What’d you say about a stripper?” she replied, looking stunned.
No, not “stripper” — I said scripture.
I hope she paid attention to the sermon.
