Hooters and the Blue Mouse Theatre in Tacoma

Two places unlikely to be visited in the same day here in Tacoma. Hooters and the historic Blue Mouse Theatre made for a mixed up but fun day. First came the Hooters lunch. We met up with some Mandy and company while they visited the Puget Sound region. After a brief trip to the mall for some shopping and big-city time killing, we headed to Hooters for some hot wings. It was Sarah's first visit but I think she was somewhat impressed with the food and waitress' attitude. To me the whole things says "If you got it, flaut it." and "The tips are probably really good." They genuinely seem to have a good time and most of the girls pretty much remind me of outgoing high school or college women with good spirit.

After we ate too much greasy food there the central Oregon folks took off for their friends' place in Tumwater. Sarah and I messed about the house in the afternoon. I pretty much finished up my copy of Destroy All Humans! It was a great, campy game with some fun challenges. Best of all, it's like taking the movie Mars Attacks! and making it a great video game.

Once evening rolled around we checked on the local movie situation and decided to make our way to the nearby Proctor District to a showing of The Producers. We had a great time at the theatre where one of the owners conducted a raffle for some movie and Blue Mouse schwag. I won a Producers t-shirt! The movie itself was great. The cast did a great job hamming it up and Uma as Ulla seemed to work well. My mom, sister and I saw the Broadway version in 2003 and completely loved it. For the money, if you can't afford a weekend in NY like we recently had then get out and see or wait and rent The Producers. Next I need to rent the 1968 original which I'm sure is a complete hoot in itself.

What would the Hooters think if they only knew that you were shooting their arses?

"Hmmm... free advertising...." Maybe?

I'd say it's a pretty good marketing shot -- it's got the company name, city, and the arses and breasteses that people come for. If only they were carrying a tray of hot wings, I could sell this puppy to Hooters corporate.

Which brings to mind a question: what kinds of outfits do people at corporate have to wear?
