Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

I didn't spend my early childhood there, don't live there currently, and don't identify as 'from' there, but I lived for several years, including middle and most of high school, in New Jersey, along this corridor, and still go back there a lot (with occasional jaunts as far as the Chesapeake Bay area). My mom's a disabilities lawyer in Mercer County pending her own move back to Western Massachusetts and my dad, who's from a significantly higher socioeconomic background, is a grocer and caterer in Morristown. This is definitely the part of the country I've come to instinctively care about the most other than Upper New England, even if I didn't actually like living there. I don't have much to say but I really appreciated this article and the quality of the photojournalism in it while I was reading it today in one of the restaurants on North Pleasant Street in Amherst Center.
