FYI, B&J's has historically been anti-2A, donating large amounts to people we don't like. I don't know if that's changed as they have been through several changes of ownership.

The company, which is known for its strong commitment to social causes, appointed a gentleman named Perry Odak as CEO. It caused a stir when the company revealed that Perry was most recently a senior manager at U.S. Repeating Arms Co.
If they've changed their tune, perhaps we can suggest some new flavors:

1) GUNS 'N' ROSES. Gun-shaped chocolate pieces and strawberry "roses" in vanilla ice cream. Your "Cherry Garcia" sold well, and with a similar endorsement from Axl Rose or Slash, this one could too!

2) UZI DOOZIE. Super-premium vanilla ice cream with a spray of chocolate chips, butter brickle, and coconut "shrapnel." Make your taste buds bleed!

3) SHOT IN THE DARK. Dark chocolate ice cream streaked with fudge ripples. Disarmingly delicious!

4) SHOOTY FRUTTI. This one is probably a fruit-flavored sorbet, along the lines of "Doonesberry." Death by pleasure!

5) SECOND AMEND-MINT. Two kinds of chunky treats (M&Ms and Kit Kats) swirled into rich minty ice cream. It'll get 'em up in arms!

I live close by and usually go to Bugsy's Taver; its right there on King Street next to the Fish Market and Ben and Jerry's. They have greeeat pizza and TV's to watch the game in case we get bored. They also have large tables as I've seen huge groups of soccer moms come in to feed their team.

They have outdoor dining for about ten people.

Does that sound good?

Ok, if we want to be in Old Town, there isn't that much outdoor dining. Since it seems people want both these things, maybe an open carry dinner in Alexandria isn't a great idea.
