4:50 PM -- Reuters reported today that the finalists have been chosen in the ironically nicknamed Garden State's tourist slogan competition:
A list of five possible slogans released on Wednesday leaves out "New Jersey: We can always use another relative on the payroll," and "Come to New Jersey: It's not as bad as it smells..."
The five finalists are: "New Jersey: Expect the Unexpected," "New Jersey: Love at First Sight," "New Jersey: Come See for Yourself," "New Jersey: The Real Deal" and "New Jersey: The Best Kept Secret."
Sigh. New Jersey: The State With the Booooooring Slogan.
