Will Oz be there to celebrate? Had some good times in Jersey. Especially ridin' through with a trucker named Jamison while hitchhiking to NY from AZ.
Bouncin' up and down in his driver's seat, looked over and proclaimed "Now THIS is truckin.'" Got me a next ride into L.I. on his CB, and dropped me off in the middle of a bridge in NY to another trucker.
Happy New Jersey Day to 'da Boss, NJ's best export, and all y'all. And that NJ exit stuff in the John Malkovich movie is a riot.
I've known and loved a couple of Jersey girls in my time, including one (a deadhead from Carteret) who was the younger sister of disgraced ex-Governor McGreevey, but somehow I was never introduced to what I'm led to understand are the unparalleled joys of a pork roll sandwich with egg and cheese.
When I lived in Philly in the early 80s, we used cruise across the Ben Franklin Bridge to buy beer in Cherry Hill because PA liquor laws were so ridiculous. I saw a few really fine GD shows in Jersey too.
When I was 16. my sister's boyfriend took me and his buddy on a surfin' safari from LI down the coast in a 55 Chevy he bought for $25. Slept on the floor of the restaurant at Cape May, NJ waiting for the ferry to MD. Woke up to bacon smells. AM radio only. I heard "Lay Lady Lay" and "A Boy Named Sue" about 6,348 times each in about a 5 day span.
I have never been there but my son and his family who drove up from Georgia to Rhode Island last week, stopped at Liberty Park and got some great shots of the Statue of Liberty.
The undercover cop was found face down in a field
The Monkey Man was on the river bridge, using Tweeter as a shield
Jan said to the Monkey Man, "I'm not fooled by Tweeter's curl
I knew him long before he became a Jersey Girl"

I'm From New Jersey - John Gorka
I'm from New Jersey
I don't expect too much
If the world ended today
I would adjust
I'm from New Jersey
No I don't talk that way
I watched too much TV
When I was young
I'm from New Jersey
My mom's Italian
I've read those mafia books
We don't belong
There are girls from New Jersey
Who have that great big hair
They're found in shopping malls
I will take you there
I'm from New Jersey
It's not like Texas
There is no mystery
I can't pretend
I'm from New Jersey
It's like Ohio
But even more so
Imagine that
I know which exit
And where I'm bound
The tolls on the parkway
They will slow you down
New Jersey people
They will suprise you
Cause they're not expected
To do too much
They will try harder
They may go further
Cause they never think
That they are good enough
I'm from New Jersey
I don't expect too much
If the world ended today
I would adjust
I would adjust
I would adjust
