Bill has extended his State Motto contest and some of the late entries are hysterical.
My favorite of the crop is:
Illinois: Miles and miles of corn, interupted by small pockets of urban decay.
This is not only hysterically funny, but true! [I am allowed to say that--I was born and raised in a one of those pockets of urban dacay and also went to college in Illinois. One of my best friends from college lived in Springfield--the capital, for those of you non-Land-of-Linconers reading this--and Springfield should be the poster child for urban decay. The only good thing about Springfield is the "horseshoe"...but I digress].
Anyway, head on over and read the rest of 'em.

I too am a native Illinoisan, but I've decided I can't move back to the place. Indiana, perhaps. But Illinois and it's Dem-dominated (curse you, Chicago!) government are out.
