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.

I've seen most of them. Storm (circa 2002) is my favorite and the soundtrack is great. If you haven't seen it yet, rent it sometime this winter--you'll love it.

I just watched Higher Ground (his latest film) on DVD over Christmas; however, it doesn't compare to Storm.

"In Jersey, we consider Pennslyvania to be "where the poor people live".

While I was growing up in Pennsylvania, we considered New Jersey, "where Philadelphia dumped its garbage."

Since the 60's the answer has always been "swamp gas."

Except for a little while, when it was, "Don't take the brown acid, man."

Actually, according to the "Environmental Research Foundation", Pennsylvania is the largest dumping ground for New Jersey garbage and solid waste.

Ha-Ha. You're poor and you get our garbage dumped on you.

Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha



"I's from Pensy-vania. I pump my own gas and pay more for it. When my vee-hick-el done break down, I's just leave it on the side of the road-way for a few weeks till the welfare man gives me money for a fixin'. All our women-folk are fat. We's barely got minor-ites or libruls, but weez still votin' Democrat!"
