So I Drove Through New Jersey And Ate a Philly Cheese Steak in Philly

Not to defend Jersey much, but you really can't judge a state by a trip through it on the interstate.

I can and I just did.

As does every other moron that drives through.  Good for us, that's one less person coming in to take advantage of the great things we have to offer.  It's really a genius strategy.  We trick the intellectually weak pretty easily.

Below is an image of one of my favorite towns in the United States. And yes, it is in New Jersey.

Madison is a very, very nice town.  Have you ever been to Morristown?  It's like a bigger version of Madison.

God forbid y'all trick us New Yorkers from taking advantage of you all, otherwise we'd have to store our waste and smokestacks and ghettos somewhere else.

Like Staten Island...kind of like you already do?

Madison sure does look chock full of industry, doesn't it?  Like I said, you all fall for it every time.  It's like a sad joke to us that you've been sitting next to us all this time and still haven't figured it out.

Oh, and remind me of what the Bronx is full of?  Not the ghetto, right? 

Welcome to Brooklyn!

Yes, I took a deposition in Morristown, and it is very nice indeed. That was when I visited Madison, based on a restaurant recommendation. Clearly, the zoning laws in the district are rather tightly enforced.

Oh, do you remember where you ate?

Yeah, they do a great job preserving the charm of the towns in the area.  Morristown is actually one of the nation's foremost examples for smart growth in the last few years.

Hey, NYC has its rough spots (google "The Bronx is on Fire"), I'm just glad we don't have to have Camden and Newark rough them up even more is all I'm sayin'

Jersey is the same way, rough spots a-plenty.  That's what makes us so intense.  But almost the entire state is beautiful and diverse.  It's very easy not to have to deal with crappy Jersey, New Yorkers just seem to make it difficult for themselves in driving through where our oodles of money comes from rather than where it goes.
