Now it goes to the Sopranos in NJ- (I forgot what real crime family they were modeled after, ) and Christie.
But there are some good people here from NJ. All is not lost. Some parts are really beautiful. I'm hoping we get a new decent governor and senator this year.....(no praying icon?)
NJ is a wonderful state, as are NY, MD, and a host of other places with fascinating geology and wonderful resources. Everywhere I have ever gone I have met fundamentally good people who exist amid those who vote in poor governments, even with the best intentions.
My undergrad (geology) advisor did his PhD work there. (He's a mineralogist). Absolutely fascinating geology there.
