Three pages, no answer to the original question.

Could be, that there's nothing really, "New", about Jersey, it's more of an experience. (almost got coffee all over my keyboard, typing that last part )

Probably the same reason we call tourists shoobies or bennies. We like two syllable words that end with a hard "e" sound.

What's the deal with peanuts on a plane?

Peanuts on a plane, what's up with that? I mean, come on, they don't give you cashews when you ride the bus.

Seriously though, it's a problem. A guy could choke to death on airline peanuts and have to change his Lit name after his resurrection.

Hey, saying stuff like that could lead to a showdown at the Bel-Air Mall, I'd watch your back too, 'cause his wife has sharpshooting abilities.

Actually, someone from the Jersey shore told me that BENNYs is an acronym.

Bayonne (Brooklyn could work too but they've got their own beaches), Elizabeth, Newark, New York.

Is that where Benny comes from? I've never really known since we don't use it down here and I've only heard the term in the past few years.

Honestly, I don't know. That's just what my shore sources have told me it means.

I've also been told that Cary, NC stands for Concentrated Area of Relocated Yankees. So take that the South!
