Illinois

Indiana
"Chicago's New Jersey." --Shawn
"Hoosier Daddy?" --Ron
Kansas
"Just because our names are similar does not mean we have anything in common with Arkansas!" --Wade
Maine
"We're not as creepy as Stephen King makes us out to be!" --Wade
Massachusetts
"Home of the Girl from Nantucket." --Toni
Minnesota
"Not just cold, butt-cold." --Karen
Mississippi

"The Commodore 64 of the United States of America." --Ash
New Jersey
"Welcome to New Jersey, what exit you at?" --Rob
"Funny Ha Ha?" --Rich
North Carolina

Oklahoma

South Dakota
"We have two seasons: Swat and Shovel." --Gary
Texas
"We put the 'fun' back in 'dysfunctional'." --Christy
Utah
"Just one legal wife per man since 1890." --Mark
Washington
(After Mt. St. Helen's eruption) "Don't come to Washington, Washington will come to you." --Michael
(From a Spokane resident) "Washington: Home of Seattle, Tacoma, and, uh, that other city over there." --David
Wisconsin

I laughed my butt off over the Massachusetts one.
Here's some:
Oregon: Half-full. (referring to the lack of people east of the mountain divide.)
California: Shake it up baby, now!
Idaho: One potato, two potato, three potato, four!
Washington: Where even the dead can vote!
Wyoming: Why-o-ming-here?
Lame, I know... but things just pop into my head...
