There you can find the state slogan that SHOULD be on the cars, trucks and other vehicles from our various states.
Megan hit it right on the head. The "true" slogan for MN is "10,000 Lakes. And 10,000,000,000,000 Mosquitoes."
There are some classics (in my view):
Arizona: But It's A Dry Heat
New York: You Have The Right To Remain Silent, You Have The Right To An Attorney
New Jersey: You Want A ##$%##! Motto? I Got Yer ##$%##! Motto Right Here!
West Virginia: One Big Happy Family. Really!

I thought it was funny from the opposite view....we have more than a few engineers that fancy themselves Word Smiths! I just don't have the heart to burst their bubble.
