Butt art

Art teacher Stephen Murmer was fired in January after Chesterfield County, Virginia Public Schools officials learned that he uses his buttocks and other "southern" parts as sort of rubber stamps to create his canvases.

This isn't the drunken office-party sitting on the the copier machine stuff, but rather a bit of performance art that also results in charming images that can stand on their own.

A lawsuit ensues.

... an ACLU lawyer who is one of Murmer's attorneys, said the school board fired Murmer for art created on his own time that he "scrupulously kept private from his students." He adopted the pen name to ensure that his students didn't discover his private work ...

"This lawsuit is about a corrupt little county in Virginia and making sure they can't do this to anyone else ever again," he said.

Good luck with that.
