Drivers along Bridgeport Way Southwest in Lakewood did double takes this summer when they saw a two-story tall giraffe poking its head over the busy thoroughfare.
Upon closer examination, the creature actually the front half of the 21-foot animal was a work in progress at Northwest Taxidermy Training.
Ive been in business 47 years, said taxidermist Roger Hamel. Ive done lions, tigers, leopards, rhinoceros and everything else. This is definitely the tallest thing Ive every done.
MMM MMM GOOD!
This years whole sordid case around Pierce County Superior Court judge Michael Hecht may be best remembered for a digression about his lunch preferences.
On trial in October for felony harassment and paying a man for sex, the judge maintained that he did not frequent the old Mecca adult theater to pick up male prostitutes. He testified that he went to the joint hundreds of times for a delicious meal of soup.

The project generated some controversy late in the year when the developers involved in the public/private partnership were unsuccessful in leasing some of the space along Pacific Avenue for retail use but found a potential client in the state Attorney General’s Office. Leasing this for office space required approval of Tacoma City Council, which did so on a 5-3 vote. A number of downtown business owners opposed this idea, urging the city to stick to the original plan to have retail on the street level.
Judge Michael Hecht guilty
Michael Hecht was elected as a judge on Pierce County Superior Court in 2008. In February the state filed a felony harassment charge and a misdemeanor charge of patronizing a prostitute. Allegations swirled about Hecht frequenting an area of downtown known for male prostitutions. The felony charge was based on an accusation of one such man that Hecht threatened to kill him shortly after the election.

Steamier espresso prompts crackdowns: Lewd behavior by some racy coffee steamers in the Everett area prompted the Snohomish County Council to demand that such espresso stands register as adult-entertainment venues. That was after five baristas were arrested on suspicion of prostitution for charging customers up to $90 to touch their breasts and buttocks at one stand. Also, the Yakima City Council cracked down on barely clad baristas by passing a law that prohibited cleavage of the buttocks, see-through clothing or a G-string in any public businesses.

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) – Scandal reared its busty bosom across Washington in 2009, as scantily-clad baristas made news from Everett to Bellevue to Spokane.
Many communities grappled with complaints filed by citizens who were not amused by the antics of buxom baristas who prepared lattes and mochas while wearing a bikini, or less.
The resulting conflicts were among the major Lowlights of 2009, proving the Evergreen State takes a backseat to nobody in the category of public embarrassment. Below is a very abbreviated list of some of the worst we had to offer:

Alice Schiller was a bit of a prude who didn’t swear, drink or smoke, much less endorse women disrobing for entertainment. So when her husband told her he wanted to turn his struggling Hollywood nightclub into a striptease house, she cried. But once she dried her tears, she got down to business, transforming an erstwhile Latin dance and jazz club on a rundown stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard into a Los Angeles landmark: the Pink Pussycat. Opened in 1961, it was pink through and through, just like the inside of Schiller’s house and her entire wardrobe. For the next two decades, Schiller was the club’s hostess extraordinaire who took pride in marketing burlesque to fit mainstream tastes. She also invented unique stage names for the strippers, including Fran Sinatra, Samya Davis Jr. and Dina Martin. Schiller died in her sleep Dec. 19 in Washington, D.C. She was 95.

Top Seattle 911 posts of 2009
We showed you a sheriff’s deputy beat a girl, and you were appalled.
We told you about a drunk ninja’s exploits, and you were amused.
You wanted to know if you could fire paintballs at prostitutes, and we told you no. Not legally.
Here, dear readers, are 2009’s top 10 most viewed posts from Seattle 911. Thanks for checking us out this year.
10. Police: Drunk ‘ninja’ impaled on First Hill fence post The headline kind of says it all. A man who described himself as a ninja was very un-ninja.
9. Can paintballs legally deter intrusive hookers? A reader question answered by seattlepi.com’s Casey McNerthney’s merry band of police. And, again, it’s generally against the law to shoot things at people, regardless of their profession.

IT’S SHOWGIRLS-BAD: In 1995, a little film about a drifter with dreams of making it big hit theaters around the nation. The movie didn’t do well at the box office, though. Possibly because it was rated NC-17 and most of the people interested in watching a movie centered on strippers and graphic lap dance scenes were under the age of 17 and snuck in without paying. Possibly because it was simply awful. Saved By The Bell’s Jessie Spano finally took it all off, and then the thrill was gone. But thanks to its cult status as one of the worst films ever made and The Stranger’s David Schmader’s dedication to identifying what exactly makes the film so wonderfully terrible, Showgirls’ legacy is alive and well. Schmader goes another round with the film, describing in detail while it plays on screen each reason it’s one of the worst films of all time and why that means it’s worth every minute.
