Moved to Arizona ten years ago, so I finally have learned a lot about the state. Watch out for those desert alligators - they hide among the prickly pear cacti until you walk by.

I always thought those critters were "desert crocs," totally different from 'gators! ;-)

Born, raised, and live in Arizona. This quiz was pretty easy for me, but still good!

Things people from Michigan say about Arizona.

1) They are going to run out of water soon. Then they'll come running back to Michigan.

2) They want our water. One day they are going to build a pipeline from the Great Lakes to steal our water.

Note: I am from Michigan.

Good idea. For New Jersey, though, I'd suggest that every question should have 3 possible answers: True, False and Hey Fuhgedabowdit, with the latter being an acceptable answer for each question.

I misread it as John McCain CURRENTLY represents Arizona.

(You could really trick people if you said John McClane from Die Hard lol)
