As Rage mentioned, joke or not, DC isn't a state. And while most of them are either funny, or sadly true (the Nevada one and the Minnesota one in particular), I believe you should come up with a nicer Montana one  |

Re: Referenced Picture
Actually, the Pope was only smelling the ancient tome of Islam. After taking a holy whiff, the Holy Father staggered back a little, and was heard to proclaim "Jesus, Achmed, this old book smells like Shi'ite!" (For those that don't speak Farsi, "Shi'ite", a common Arabic expletive, loosely translated means 'camel-dung'.)
