Maybe I missed something but I think you've got your facts messed up SS. Traficant is the one corrupt politician not from New Jersey.

LOL
Holy crap, your right. My mistake.
Who would have figured he wasn't from Jersey?...

That's what I get for stereotypeing Jersey pols.
I'll do better next time.

Remind me to never let StoveStomper be the navigator on a trip.

Seriously geographically challenged.

LOL @ Stovestomper! Funny mistake! Feel free to rag on Jersey though, this state sucks!

just change the title to "Mississippi pickin' on Jersey." or perhaps "Jersey pickin' on Jersey."

"Seriously geographically challenged"

Hey, I think I'll use that for an extra quota point. I'll be ahead of all the non-geographically challenged.

I really do know where Ohio is....
It's one of those states in Canada right? (Laughing at myself)

Yeah, Yeah, you know where Ohio is, guess that means you don't know where Jersey is.

Location and Size
Welcome to Jersey – the most southerly island of the British Isles. Located some 100 miles (160 km) south of mainland Britain yet only 14 miles from the coast of France, Jersey provides the visitor with a kaleidoscope of sensory stimuli. Despite its small size – Jersey measures just nine miles by five -- all your senses are made to work overtime in this tiny island.
It might be thought that an area of forty-five square miles with a permanent population of something over 85,000 would have little but buildings to explore. But approach the island by air and you see lush valleys, well-kept fields and an unspoilt coastline. Arrive by sea and the rocky grandeur of La Corbiere, the sweep of St. Aubin’s Bay and picturesque Elizabeth Castle set the scene for a grand encounter with a small but delightful island whose variety of scenery, wealth of history and sheer beauty compete with much larger and, perhaps, better-known destinations.

Or perhaps you were confusing this with New Jersey 'The Garden State' of Sopranos fame ?? LOL

Perhaps the mistake was with a Jersey

Ever wonder why there are no tolls for entering Jersey but you pay up everytime when leaving?

Does anyone know the story of why the town of Jersey Shore is smack in the middle of Pennsylvania?

In Oregon, you can find deals on gear by using patience and perspicacity. In Jersey, you get some great deals on gear because, hey,maybe your buddy just hijacked a truck.
