Once word gets out about what the women look like, men will stay away. Granola munchers may still drop in, however.

It creeped me out because the lady looked my aunt 20 years ago, same hair, same hair color, same glasses... Hey, maybe that IS my aunt !

A quick look at Google Maps shows that Vassalboro, Maine is just off I-95.

If One were to visit Maine and ask "Which way to East Vassalboro?" there's only a single reply that you'll get.

Any Marshall Dodge fans out there? Anyone? Anyone?

I was born and raised in Maine. My children were born and raised in Maine. Our family came to Maine in 1632 when it was the Maine district of Mass.

Q: The difference between a Canadian tourist in Maine and a canoe?

A: Ayuh, canoe liable to tip.

No, it's from a real coffee shop (probably early '90s)!

Original here. Warning: NSFW!!!!

Man, you've got me beat. My family came in after the war, when they got their military service paid off in land instead of money.

Not much cash floating around in the 1780s.

There is plenty wrong with some of them, although there are always some diamonds hiding among the trolls. Besides, you can’t compare the poutine-eatin’ Frenchies with those County girls, who all have strong backs from pickin’! I’d take a County girl before a Washington County one.

The other girl in the third photo is not guilty at least. :O)

Our family came to Maine in 1632 ..... My children were born and raised in Maine.

Ayuh, and I reckon if your cat had kittens in the oven, they'd be biscuits?

PS: Currently searching for a Passamaquoddy ancestor ... desperately, as I could use the money..

“Well, the waitresses will always be pointedly friendly..........”

Climate aside, I’d prefer it be closer to the Canadian side of ME. (too close to Augusta)

OH, CANADA...

"Fellow was born in New Hampshire, and was all of six months old before he set foot in the Great State of Maine. When he died at the ripe old age of 90-odd, we wanted to do something nice for him, so we had "He was almost one of us" chiseled on his headstone."

Appropriate, ain't it? Funny, but not if you're from away.

[thefrankbaum]

There oughta be a law - if you’re from away, you can’t vote in Maine elections. That’d fix a lot of problems.

[WellyP]

That’s the way it is “up home”.

Did you hear about the new Saco zoo?

They fenced in Biddeford.

"How can they have a topless coffee shop in Maine? Won't it fill up with snow and rain? How would they heat it? This makes no sense, it's ..."

"Emily"

"... just a crazy ... yes?"

"Emily, topless as in the waitresses will wear no tops."

"Oh, that's different. Nevermind.   Oh, But Chevy, it is Maine and someone could poke an eye out." /Latella

Marketing...for every age group. Teen consumption will go up unless ID and age restrictions are required.

Hey, these girls need college money!!

[wbill]

yep. Massachusetts let Maine go in 1820, and have been buying it back one house lot at a time, ever since.

Blowing the Kittery bridge would likely go farther towards solving Maine's problems.
