NJ is a very corrupt state, which doesn't help them, but Illinois, IMHO is even worse, which is why we won't go bankrupt - when the state economy fails, feds come in and look at the books, and all the corruption can be discovered.

[RANT] Ah Illinois, where the construction workers rip up the roads in spring and leave them ripped up until they have a mad rush in October to finish them (which they never manage), where the Governor sold drivers liscences in exchange for bribes, the Chicago police are more crooked than a 7.8 dollar bill, and where the developers are building ass ugly subdivisions right and left, filled with hideous McMansions built for people in mid-level management, who are only a paycheck away from bankruptcy, and yet drive BMWs and Mercedes and Lexi. [/RANT]

Ooh, you should write the travel brochure!!

Meh, Daley would send his stooges after me, and I'd end up in Lake Michigan with concrete shoes on.

Ooh! I heard thereare Lampreys in the Great Lakes! :unsure:

Never saw one, never caught one. They supposedly came in when European ships would dump ballast. Also Zebra Mussels which are a real pain. I think the lamprays are gone now, just Koho Salmon, walleye, muskie, big ass bass, some trout. Not much to worry about, unlike your little body of water that has SHARKS!! :cry:

Well, the coast off LA is relatively clean of Great Whites at least. But there is an ass load of them up north. An area called "the red triangle" near San Francisco gets a ton of 'em. People get attacked all the time. I even heard that those gyus that got off Alcatraz were eaten before they made it ashore! Down here the baddest we get are the tiger sharks. But they hang out by the pier, so its mostly safe to surf if you're far enough away.

At least sharks don't latch onto you and suck your blood! I heard about some Roman guy who killed people by throwing them into a pit of Lampreys! They sucked people dry! :cry:

Well, they are just over-sized leeches, and I hate leeches!!

Oh, and a cute little tiger shark can still remove your thigh muscle in one chomp, or de-groin you, or take off an arm, so, no thanks!!

I have to admit, one of the reasons I don't like to swin in the ocean is that the thought of ending up being eaten by some prehistoric fish frightens the hell out of me! It is my room 101, if you know what I mean!! Oh, along with spiders! I hate spiders!!

Damn Zebra Mussels. They're the reason the water in Chicago tastes like detergent and chlorine!
