New Jersey 2

A handful of okay beaches and proximity to NYC and Philadelphia are a plus. . .but the toll roads, taxes, and unfriendly-commuter atmosphere (traffic jams, can't pump your own gas) make this state a forgettable experience in the American spectrum. Then again, everyone I've ever met has a strong opinion on Jersey, thus it always seems to be memorable.

My old man hated Trenton- "Slightly less dangerous than Vietnam after dark." Not a poet but the man had a way with words. . .
