Good article comparing stereotypes:

My favorite is the paragraph about New Hampshire:

One can regain some sanity by driving into New Hampshire. Unlike Massachusetts, the Wal-Marts up here sell firearms.  And someone must have been on the ball; without any general sales tax on retail, people flock from other states to shop.  In fact, New Hampshire is so libertarian that there are 28 elected Libertarian Party dog catchers.  And after making sure your car meets the government?s safety regulations, paying to register your car, and paying for the government?s permission to drive your car, you even get a ?Live Free or Die? slogan on your license plate. Just make sure you don?t drive anywhere without it.

And remembers, he considers NH to be "relative sanity" compared to the excesses of her neighbors!
