If you're like me and sick of only hearing about our state when it's the punchline of a joke, then the New Jersey Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony is a must see! Over the past few years I have been honored to work the red carpet at the ceremonies. I have met some of the world's most famous people, all of whom call or called the Garden State home.

I asked this one to some friends and was surprised to find that only 40% of lifetime Garden State residents got it right. Do you know it?

Do we really need to encourage people to be nasty here in the Garden State? Today is 'National Be Nasty Day', and according to examiner.com, you are encouraged to tell people to "talk to the hand" or tell them "yes you do look fat in that outfit." Who's bright idea was this?

I checked out the list of reasons to live in New Jersey at toptenz.net. To me, some make sense and some don't. I think my favorite reason for living in NJ is summer. I know there's traffic, and it's hard to find parking, but there's something about being around the Jersey shore in the summer that is amazing. Sea gulls, the beach, the boardwalk...to me, there's nothing better.
