Nice set of hooters you got there

I had lunch at Hooters today. So we all know what this post is going to be about... chicken wings. I'm so funny. Ok, here we go: There are some thoughts in my head which may (or may not) be worth expressing, so let's see if I can write a post where I don't get myself into too much trouble. I can hear Alex's voice right now, "PDTSHVL. Step away from the keyboard..."

-First off, I think you have to respect a restaurant which openly embraces its use of sex to sell food. Respect, might be too strong a word. Let's try admire.

-Much like the most effective method for picking up a bartender, I wonder what would work to solicit a phone number from a Hooters waitress. You know every male in the joint is hitting on these women, and every male who has something to drink is trying to get their number/take them home. I, of course, was not doing this - I was merely wondering how often these women are propositioned, what is the success rate of these attempts, and of these few successes which tactics work best.

-What if my girlfriend worked at Hooters? Would that be OK with me? She can do whatever and work wherever she chooses, of course, but I don't know how I would feel about other men ogling my girlfriend. I mean ogling in public when she is walking down the street is one thing, but if she is going to a job where the purpose of her outfit is to entice ogling, I might be concerned. What if my wife works at Hooters? What if she's a stripper? A hooker? This can quickly spiral out of control.

-Kevin, a departed colleague from work, sent me an email today entitled "Fodder for the blog" which contained a link to the following articles: Oral sex at the synagogue and It's all smiles at the Victoria's Secret show (mark your calendars for Dec. 6th). If the titles alone aren't interesting enough, take my recommendation that the oral sex article is a real page turner. I wonder how I am going to teach "restraint" to my own kids someday, with or without the help of some religious compass.

-All in all, I really liked the quote from the Talmud:

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib: Not from his feet to be walked on. Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved.

Well, thank you. It's nice to hear from a new reader.

I will have to start reading you a regular basis too. I know Ruvym is a fan of yours.

Ah, I see you two have met. I for one don't know what a Rabbi is doing talking about oral sex with kids in 6th grade? What's up with kids these days? I blushed from the word "sex" back then; I didn't even know what oral sex meant.
