New Jersey Stuff

New Jersey has a new state slogan. The new slogan is "New Jersey: Come See For Yourself." I did think one of the suggestions, 'New Jersey: You Got a Problem With That?' was really funny.

Are you a Jersey person? Share the good

, the bad

and the secret pleasure

stuff about NJ. My secret pleasures are the small AC Museum and the Art Gallery on the boardwalk and Gardner's Basin all in Atlantic City.

It's great to hear about where other people live.

Hi CJBob,

When they (we) were looking for a new slogan, some of the newspapers and magazines Jerseyians (sp??) were arrogant. Maybe that's because folks are always, in the words of my young nephew, 'dissing' Jersey (LOL) There really is a lot a great stuff here.

Our veggie farms are awsome! The tomatoes are the best

I LOVE Jersey! I live in NY, but I have been vacationing there for a dozen years.

What people don't get is that the aroma of some parts of Jersey is the wetlands, jnot garbage.

I love, love, love Cape May. It is clean and mostly safe. (I am ashamed to admit that at the time that teen was murdered down there a few years ago, I was from the town the murderer was from. We went just days after it happened, and we sure didn't tell anyone where we were from.)

Hi Kimberlina,

Yes, getting past those wetlands is terrible. I will always remember a little boy who held his little nose and say "mommy is that a good smell?" I guess he was at some point not to say the word "stinks".

Cape May is wonderful and safe. It's like a throwback to a different time. I do remember the murder. It's funny that you kept where you were from a secret, in that instance I would have too

Some things should be told on a need to know basis
