Live Free Or, Uh, Do Something Else

Wind Rider suggested I have a contest based on my New Mexico - Land of Enchiladas post. So what would be a better license plate slogan for your state than the current one? I'll start.

Virginia:

Land of Really Bad Drivers
We've Got Ham!
We've Got Peanuts Too. Screw Those Assholes from Georgia!
We Don't Hate Black People Anymore!
Just East of West Virginia!
Better Than Delaware!
Come for the Crabs, Stay for the Mosquitos!

I know you can do better than that. I'll post the winners although here at Bloviating Inanities, everyone is a winner!

Self-esteem 'R' Us!

Virginia: Owned & Operated by Dominion Power
Virginia: More Than Just Military!
Virginia: Better than living in Iowa
Virginia: The Buckle in the Bible Belt!
or the ever popular:
Virginia: If we don't hate you yet, just wait!

Wow. I should have done the motto contest. It's going a lot better than my fish sticks thing.

Bigwig cluttered the issue with facts right off the bat.
