State slogans that oughta be

Don't worry, New Jersey, you're far from alone in needing a new state slogan. Here are some of my favorite suggestions from the reader mailbag.

Alabama
"Really just Mississippi in a mirror." --Wade

Connecticut
"Driver's license test? What driver's license test?" --Renee

Delaware
"The place you drive through to get to the beach." --Judith

Florida
"God's Waiting Room." --Byron

Hawaii
"Aloha -- we don't know if we're coming or going." --Ron

Illinois
"Will the defendant please rise?" --Kelli

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
"We have a full set of teeth ... if you count us all at once." --Ash
"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
"Ohio technology tried here first!" --Brian

Oklahoma
"The circus has been here twice!" --Karen
"Come visit beautiful Tornado Alley! (Rebuilt every five years.)" --Wade

Pennsylvania
"Where the roads never seem to get any better." --Ryan

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
"Come smell our dairy air." --Submitted by numerous folks
"Come for the cheese, stay to laugh at the accents." --Karen



I found these while reading another article at msnbc.com.

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...
