After all that I have given back to NJ...
The Great State of New Jersey has come out with a New Jersey Hall of Fame. The first class of inductees rolls 15 deep and includes a former U.S. Senator, one of the greatest inventors of all time, the greatest scientific mind of the 20th century, the greatest NFL coach of all time, and of course Springsteen and Sinatra among others.
A hall of fame honoring the great alumni of New Jersey is certainly a solid idea which is long overdue. But aren't we forgetting someone here? What about a soon-to-be publishing magnate the likes of which have never been seen before? Where the hell am I on this list? Can we really make a list of great New Jerseyans (Is that a term? Did I just invent it Thomas Edison style?) and not include myself on this list? This is like Axl Rose playing music under the Guns n Roses moniker but not including Slash. I refuse to recognize GnR without Slash and I refuse to recognize the NJ Hall of Fame until I become a member.
And lastly, SHMUCK, Merloni and MissMet also got screwed like a porn star by the Hall of Fame voters. Don't ever say that I don't care about my writers.

I call shenanigans on Harriet Tubman. The fact that she "had an Underground Railroad base in Cape May" doesnt mean shit. George Washington had more bases in NJ than her.
but if you get in the NJ hall of fame, then people will know you are from jersey... isn't that what you've been trying to hide all these years?
