Who cut the cheese?

New Jersey, apparently.

Across the length and breadth of Manhattan, people were asking, "What's that smell?" after a pungent odor like natural gas or rotten eggs blanketed the borough and northern New Jersey for three hours yesterday morning.

By evening, the answer seemed to be a stinky gas emitted by a New Jersey swamp or marsh.

"That's where our noses and instruments tell us" the smell was coming from, said Charles Sturcken, a spokesman for the city Department of Environmental Protection.

A big belch from Jersey. Makes you wonder what is going on in the swamp to create the smell.

With no snow, as it is now , we don't do much. I have the potential to generate some good body heat. Okay, now stop flirting with me ;)

Do you downhill ski?

I have the potential to generate some good body heat.

So what you are telling me is you are hot? Well that makes this a different conversation then. ;)

Most people get their impression of NJ when they see what's on the other side of the Lincoln Tunnel or GW Bridge

Yes, my first view of NYC was at dusk traveling through a dismal swamp, then bright lights...big city.

I do know the other NJ.

I was about eight years old. Learning to go up the tow rope on the bunny hill was quite an experience. Talk about many face-plants in the snow and almost having my arms yanked out their sockets. lol. I'll see if I can dig up a picture for ya.

Ahh a good time made even better by hot chocolate. My mom doesn't ski, so I spent a lot of time on the hills by myself, of course back then you could do that.
