Hi Flip Wilson-

The whole "Joisey" misspelling has become trite and overused. You have some interesting and valid commentary, so please don't lose your message due to overdone humor.

Blue Jays,

Thank you for the advice, but I spell it as best I can to approximate how I hear it pronounced in this state. Unfortunately for me, it is not overdone humor but spite. I think NJ (there, I did not use "Joisey") could be a wonderful state, but its government has flushed it right down the tubes and made life for those of us living in it (by choice or otherwise) harder than it should be.

Yet, the good citizens of this state continue to vote for that government. If Corzine had promised to show up at every voters door and shoot them in the head, no, if he had promised to show up and throw gasoline on them and light the match personally, a majority of the good people of NJ still would have crawled to the polls on their hands and knees to pull the lever for this guy.
