Paper or plastic

Apropos of nothing, I pass along the story of Dean Wooten who was fired from Wal-Mart for photoshopping his head onto a body naked save for a strategically placed Wal-Mart bag. It was Wooten's need to share the photo with customers explaining that Wal-Mart was rolling back costs for uniforms that got him the sack, as it were.

Wooten said he did not see the harm in the photo, which he said was made by a friend who spliced a picture of Wooten's head onto a shot of another man's body.

"When I first seen it, I pretty near died laughing," he said.

Have I mentioned that it's still raining here in LA? It's getting increasingly difficult to maintain a good humor, that's all I'm saying.
