1988 was my last year in New Jersey, lived ther for 33 years. Had the car radio set to a local country station just to piss off the yuppies.

Of course now I’m stuck in Minnesota, and after nearly eight years here, my tag line (to paraphrase Davy Crockett):
Don't be too tough on Minnesotans. After only a couple of generations in Alaska, they brought forth Sarah Palin.
