I've just discovered, thanks to the Newstimes, that New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy was annoyed that Connecticut is choosing to make pizza its official food, so, on Feb. 9 which is National Pizza Day, Murphy tweeted, "I'm incredibly proud to be Governor of the Pizza Capital of the World. #NationalPizzaDay"

Connecticut Senate Dems tweeted back, "no way." As far as we know, Gov. Murphy has not responded. While Gov. Murphy and Gov. Lamont argue over who has the best pizza in the land, it has caught the eyes and ears of "The Late Show" host Stephen Colbert.

Atta boy Colbert, more lame jokes about the State of Connecticut. Great job, Stephen!
