NYTimes/AP: 65 yr old Wal Mart worker fired over semi nude photo

Dean Wooten, 65, was accused of greeting customers with a computer generated photo of himself in which he appeared to be naked except for a carefully placed Wal Mart bag, telling customers that Wal Mart was cutting costs and the sack was the company's new uniform. Wooten had worked for Wal Mart for 7 years. His supervisor told him to knock it off after customers complained. He was fired five days later after he displayed the photo again. Wooten's application for unemployment benefits were denied. Wooten said he did not see any 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
