VIRGINIA TACKLES THE ISSUES

Cracking down on the Beersicle.

What a way to cool off after mowing the lawn! Not that I mow the lawn, but still!

Can lawmakers make themselves look like bigger dunces? Yes, yes they can.

You mean people make these on purpose? My beersicles usually result from the "I'll put this warm can of beer in the freezer, so when I'm done with these four cold ones it'll be juuusssst right" strategy.

Only way to drink them is to widen the split in the can and gnaw at the frozen contents. Hey, we've all been there...

I think the Perk Patrol on the page could use a few beersicles.....

Yes, russell, muy perky.

"They'll take my beersicle when they pry it from my drip-covered, beer-sodden hand."

It sounds like the situation is coming to a head.

I want to be there when it does, iykwim!

The department plans to send an agent to investigate.

"Anyone heard from Agent Spatula yet? Anyone?"

"Sir, Special Agent Spatula filed this report about an hour ago...From his Blackberry, sir."

"'IEC CREEM HEDAKE, OWWW. SNED REIFNORCEMETS LOLOLOLOLOL!' This is his report?"

"I'm not sure Agent Spatula was the right man for this job, sir, you know he's been treated for addiction-related liver inflammation and Spontaneous Flatulence..."

"Agent Spatula is a damn fine member of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Agency, Miss Temperature, and he deserves a second chance, we all--"

"He's filing another report, sir."

"'MY LVER HURTZ! HEY, WHO FARDDED? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!' Okay, go get him. Clean him up and put him back on that Spiked Lemonade Stand stakeout."

Alexandria VA. Hmm, the place is only 15 miles from me! Have to check it out this weekend. In the interest of Science and for the good of The Blog, of course...

From the Washington Post review of Rustico:


There's a lot to like about Alexandria's Rustico, a beer-centric bar with 30 taps and 250 bottle brands, a wood-burning pizza oven -- exposed but not too exposed -- and padded bar stools. (The bartender makes a commendable martini, too.)

They had this on GMA this morning. They call it a hopsicle.
