New Jersey without a slogan

The state has jettisoned "Come See For Yourself," its second attempt at a tagline in less than a year. It was the product of a statewide contest set up by then-acting Gov. Richard J. Codey last fall, after he rejected a consultant's offering: "We'll Win You Over."
State tourism officials said legal issues led them to scrap the latest slogan, explaining that West Virginia and other states previously used "Come See For Yourself."
"We are proceeding without the slogan. We will revisit the next steps at the end of the year," Karen Wolfe, a spokeswoman for the state Commerce, Economic Growth and Tourism Commission, told The Press of Atlantic City for Saturday editions.
I got a slogan for them "We didn't get the lawyers"

You know why Jersey calls itself the "Garden State"?
Because the "Toxic Waste and Refinery State" would not fit on the license plate
But you know why New Jersey has all the Toxic waste and California has all the lawyers?
New jersey got to pick first.
