Got an idea for a Quincy slogan?

Uncle Sam Rounseville has placed a giant questionmark at the corner of Newport Avenue and Beale Street to encourage people to submit ideas for a slogan for Quincy.

The winner of the slogan contest will win $500 and will have his or her slogan used on the billboard for three months.

Entries should be a maximum of seven words and should capitalize on Quincy's place in American history. They should be self-explanatory and will preferably evoke the city's connection with the Adams family, the David McCullough biography of John Adams or the HBO series based on the book.
