Yes, folks, Virginia has hit a new low: still on the books from around prohibition times is a law that prohibits the serving/sale of sangria in restaurants because it's wine mixed with spirits (brandy). Too intoxicating! But not only is it still on the books, but restaurants such as Jaleo in Crystal City have been fined for it. They've now altered their recipe so it doesn't include brandy (Jaleo in the District has not changed its recipe because DC doesn't have such stupid law).
This from the state who refuses to pass a smoking ban in restaurants and bars. Unbelievable asshattedness. Read the whole story here.
Just give me a scotch.
