Hmmmm....what's so bad about "the garden state"?
I live in Jersey and when I first moved here, I hated it too, especially 
because I moved here from Seattle, a very beautiful city.  However, it's 
kind of grown on me.  I love the fact that it's so culturally diverse; in 
the town where I live there is a kosher Chinese restaurant, an Ethiopian 
restaurant, a Thai restaurant, a kosher pizzeria, and even a kosher Dunkin 
donuts.  I also like the fact that I can drive or take the train into to 
Manhattan in less than an hour.

Last weekend, I bought the 'Storytelling' CD.  At first, I didn't like it, 
but after a few listens, I think it's starting to grow on me.  I also bought 
the new Mary Timony CD, 'The Golden Dove', which I think is the best thing 
she's put out since her days in Helium.  Mark Linkous from Sparklehorse 
actually helped produce it, so it has a distinctively different sound from 
her last solo album, 'Mountains' which, in my opinion, wasn't produced well 
at all.
