Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

NJ had the balls to claim the rights to the Statue of Liberty Once, which is why that state is rated R for retarded.

Kings county (Brooklyn) was named after the King of England.  Queens county named after the Queen.  York (Manhattan) named after the Duke of York.  Richmond county (Staten Island) was named after the King's bastard son.  Very fitting when you consider Staten Island is the bastard county of New York.  I always pretended it was part of Jersey too.  It is also home to the largest man made structure in North America, the Arthur Kill Landfill.

They also claim the rights to our sports teams and they can't drive worth a damn.  They are so bad that the state had to make left turns illegal because it was too difficult a concept for them.

yes, couldn't agree more...bastard county. crazy attitudes in SI. i got out as fast as i could.

and the landfill was SI's claim to fame but back in the 80's it was actually THE largest in the world!
