NJ Edition of Windows XP

[Sandtiger]

Friend of mine in Waretown NJ (down the shore) sent this to me and I posted it on the Virginia Angler Board. Not sure if they really get it, so we thought about posting it here. I thought it was funny............... (BTW, I'm from Jersey - Edison, then Metuchen, then Toms River, then Bayville. The wife is from Plainfield).

Here it is;
