thistlechaserTo show support for a new Vermont law legalizing gay marriage, the iconic ice cream maker Ben & Jerry's has renamed its popular "Chubby Hubby" flavor. Chubby Hubby became Hubby Hubby! Oh my god, that the greatest thing ever! I'm not an ice cream person, but if I lived in VT I'd buy one just for the container!
"For the next 30 days, Hubby Hubby will be available across Vermont. The product's packaging will feature two men in tuxedos getting married."
*laughs* That made my morning on a sucky work day. :D
(Now come on, California, look at all these other states that can do this! We can, too!)

I wish this _was_ for sale in Virginia, I'd totally buy some. :)

Hee!

Silly thistle, ice cream and fire don't mix! But seriously, yay equality! Kinda sad when an ice cream company is more on the ball then the government itself, I bet Ben & Jerry's could get you guys outta that economic crunch too!
