The weekend will take the over.
STRANGELOVE
Movie Night at Black Cat
Drop by the rock club's Backstage, where the normal indie angst gets traded for...Cold War angst. Kubrick's
Dr. Strangelove will be on the big screen, and the club's new take on the Irish Car Bomb—a
secretive development known as the Festiva Bomb—will be doled out with...aplomb.

G-MEN
Inaugural Federal Friday at ONELounge
Here's your chance to hit up that Hill staffer about your earmark request for state-of-the-art oyster
research. Every Friday starting this week, this new Dupont lounge is doling out two-for-one cocktails for
anyone who draws a check from the government, from Hill aides to NASA scientists. Because no one's more fun
than a tipsy rocket scientist.

FIRESIDE CHAT
Lasagna Weekends at Naked Mountain Winery
Random snowball fights aside, the city is no place to be with a foot of old snow on the ground. You want to
get bucolic. Preferably somewhere with a fireplace and barrels of booze. And if they'll serve you a slab of
homemade sausage lasagna, half a loaf of garlic bread and some vino, all the better. Because Virginia is for
lasagna.

- Weekends through mid-March, 11am-4pm, $17, Naked Mountain Winery, 2747 Leeds Manor Rd, Markham, VA, 540-364-1609
PIGSKIN PLAN
Super Saints Sunday at Acadiana
On Super Sunday, haute Louisiana haunt Acadiana is trading its three-course dinner and white-tablecloth
service for flat-screens, pitchers of beer and all-you-can-eat New Orleans fare. Think oysters, boiled
shrimp, Cajun wings, meat pies and beignets. And if your coin toss prop bet doesn't come in, there's plenty
of absinthe.

- Feb 7, 5pm-the final whistle, $29pp, Acadiana, 901 New York Ave NW, 202-408-8848 to reserve
