Butt painter settles wrongful discharge lawsuit


In the update that I know everyone's been waiting for, Stephen Murmer, the Virginia high school art teacher terminated after school officials learned he moonlighted by creating paintings using his bare buttocks as a brush, has settled his wrongful discharge lawsuit on the eve of trial. [See Butt painter's lawsuit to go to trial].

You may be asking yourself, what was his claim worth? $65,000. Unreal. We can all sleep easier knowing justice has been served.
