Title: Jax reference on 30 Rock 100th episode

Anyone watch 30 Rock last night?  Alec Baldwin was freaking hilarious as his past, future, and alternate universe selves.
And to top it off, Jacksonville, FL was used as a punchline for one of the jokes--sad but funny.

I watched last night caught the Jacksonville reference. It was indeed funny but sad. I wasn't like the comment was really that derogatory... just kind of made the idea of moving to Jax sound like a huge mistake in Liz's life.

Yeah, the reference to Jax wasn't too derogatory, just kind of a sad contrast to her current life in Manhattan.  If I had been drinking milk, I'm sure it would have squirted out of my nose at that line, it was so unexpected--I thought they would have gone with the old standard punchline/state New Jersey--not that there's anything really wrong with NJ, other than Snookie and her Jersey Shore flat mates giving us Garden Staters a worse rep than we already had!
