Waste / Waist

… was driving on route 1 south last night behind a large garbage hauling truck.  Normally these things have a sign on the back of them that says “Municipal Waste” (I see them on the NJ highways all the time).  They are the ones that you try to avoid because they have a tarp on top of them that does not stop the debris from flying out.  Spray painted (in stencil) on the back of this one was “Municipal Waist”.  At that moment I just assumed it was a humorous spelling mistake but in retrospect, I am now thinking it may have been the work of a witty and politically savvy municipal employee commenting either on the expenditures during election campaigns or possibly the cost of local corruption.

... are you implying that NJ is a state of rednecks

EH? that would be 'waste' too....

literally yes, but I meant that more as a play on words ... a corpulent politician (i.e., waist band) as a metaphor for waste.

there is a politition from new hampshire called dick sweat.
now im from boston..so we laugh at this guy constantly when hes on tv.
you think with a name like that..hed want to be called richard sweat.
but i wonder if he used this name as a ploy to get more votes..i mean this name stands out.and if your in that election both voting...i know if it were me..id be laughing so hard id be saying..im voting for the guy with the persperating private parts..haaaa..this is true you know..see for yourself.
it says richard sweat but he goes by dick.

I don't believe that NJ is a Redneck-free zone.  They're out there if you look hard enough. 

When I was a young lad going to tech school in good ol' NJ.  I had a lab partner who you'd swear he was from the deep south because of his accent.  He came from the south alright--somewhere between Atlantic City and Cape May.  Other than his accent, he wasn't a redneck.  He just sounded like one.  I have run across a few rednecks back there--just as I have here in CA.

NJ is full of Rednecks. We just keep to ourselves.

Rednecks always have the coolest clothes and cars. :)

You sure about that?  I thought they only had trucks.  With gun racks.  And curtains.  Then there's this:

He's got shorts around his ankles. :) And I bet you a hundred bucks there's a rusted out 4 x 4 that's running on 2 cylinders off camera parked by the edge of the deck. :)
