Illinois' new mottos should be,


"trust me, I'm your Governor!"

 

Love it! Great suggestion, Scott!

 

Yeah they are good! My favorite is NJ!

 

In Wyoming there were two bumper stickers for sale, they were designed to be attached to your pickup bumber with the first on the far left (first read); "Wyoming, where men are men, women are scarce, and sheep are nervous".

The second one read; "And sheep are lying little b*tches!"

 

Not a state, but my village's(!) motto is "worthy and strong".
Where the hell they got that one from, I'm damned if I know.

 

Our one here is...

Welcome to the crime capital of the world.

This due to a number of police helicopters buzzing around here day and night. I'm sure they got a nice selection of pictures of me hanging out the window and shouting out clear off you noisy sods.

 

And here I thought California's motto was:

Welcome to the land of fruits and nuts!

 

BTW, the motto of Montana is the Treasure State. The slogan Big Sky Country is an advertising slogan, not our motto. Ted Kaczynski was not a Montanan, but from Illinois. Most of his life was spent on both coasts, not Montana. And we arrest the radical right whenever they step over the line. Montana Militia, gone. Montana Freemen, gone. Militia of Montana, ineffecitve with their property confiscated. CUT (Church Universal and Triumphant), gone with property confiscated.

We in Montana are tolerant of our "goof-balls", but step out of line and its the "crowbar hotel" for you (after due process of course).

The honest elections are true though, we still use paper ballots with a supplied pencil and "darken the appropriate circle", not punch card crap and machine readers.

 

Colorado: April showers bring May BLIZZARDS!!!!
