Jersey joke

This is a howler: New York City Invokes Eminent Domain to Acquire New Jersey. My children must have thought I'd completely cracked up with the way I was carrying on from the time the page popped up until I finished. By the time I hit the landfill crack below, I was in tears.

New York will compensate the current residents of New Jersey with "fair market value" for their property, a total amount estimated to be well within Bloomberg's ability to pay out of his own pocket. After evicting all current residents from New Jersey, New York plans to add a new Olympic stadium, a Trump apartment complex, international airport, and, most critically, a 4,000 square mile landfill.

'Dibs on Nevada' indeed.
