New Jersey: Former Home of Danny and the Juniors!

[doug from upland]

"THE BODIES ARE BURIED IN OUR GARDEN, STATE"

[Cagey]

And, The Four Seasons.

[Windcatcher]

New Jersey: Quadruple Delaware's land and quadruple the taxes.

[Cagey]

Although, I'm pretty sure Danny and the Juniors were from Philly but you can bet they performed in Wildwood.

OK, this is just FUNNY:

[Cagey]

Hahahaha! I'll never look at that word the same again.

[drlevy88]

New Jersey: redneck free.

[Cagey]

New Jersey: redneck free

You've never been to the Pinelands.

[Revolting cat!]

Damn, not even Danny and the Juniors are from there! How about Rosie and the Originals?

[Cvengr]

[Pyncho]

Nice "art," as they say in the newspaper business.

I don't get the comment... If the topic was, way, to give a new slogan to TX and things got a bit dicey, I can't imagine getting hot and bothered.

Nor can I. I even contributed a slogan- New Jersey: Maybe next year. And by posting the chart, I acknowledged there are those from NJ that are on this site and think it is worth doing something positive. Being in the state you're in (and I don't mean Texas), you missed that point and instead posted something (yet again) about someone named Tony.

It's all fun and games, but at least give credit to those who are contributing to this site.

[Pyncho]

Fair enough.

New Jersey the Huck You State

[Verginius Rufus]

I think there was already a saying during the colonial period that New Jersey was "a valley of humility between two mountains of conceit."

Not sure of the exact wording, but at any rate the tradition of putting New Jersey down goes way back.

New Jersey is the only northern state where Lincoln didn't get a majority of the popular vote either time he ran. Somehow he still got the majority of the electoral vote (4 of 7 votes) in 1860.

New Jersey: Find Hoffa, win a trip to New York.

My introduction to NJ was in 1962 when I shipped out of McGuire; fifteen months later I was back there processing out of the USAF.

A few years later, I had to take my car to the Military Ocean Terminal at Bayonne (MOTBY). There is an overwhelming sense of corruption there. You'd better not leave anything loose or valuable in the car, because by the time it gets to Naples or Jeddah, it'll be gone and not stolen by the Napolitanos or the Yemenis working the port at Jeddah.

[Sunnyflorida]

There are lots, I mean lots, of rednecks in Florida. Everybody knows that but what is amazing is how many are actually from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.
