Haha. I spent weekend in Maine for first time in 30 years. Driving by Augusta exit on Rt 95, we said “Thank you for the Vote, Susan Collins!.”

The insanity of the Democrats is so obvious it is time to destroy the party by voting them ALL out! Susan Collins was ONE vote for Kavanaugh. There were 48 other Republicans who voted FOR him besides Collins and one Democrat. EACH vote FOR Kavanaugh contributed to his confirmation, but the Dems have to have a culprit and have chosen Collins. Kindergarten children have more sense than the Dems.

We should support products made in Maine and let the supplier know why we’re buying from them. And if you can, go pay Maine a visit as a tourist. This is just bull$hit nonsense.

On Fugelsang:

“Fugelsang (FEW-gull-sang) was born on Long Island, New York. Of Danish, German, and Irish descent, he is the son of a former nun and former Franciscan Brother.”

Takeaway:
Former nuns and priests should never procreate!

“John Tesar, who owns six restaurants in Texas and is opening a seafood restaurant in California, told the newspaper that he’ll look elsewhere for the “hundreds of thousands of dollars” worth of seafood that he buys annually from Maine.”

Guess all Texans aren’t pro American! Note to real Texans, this knife cuts both ways. If he doesn’t have any customers in his restaurants, he won’t be buying any seafood from anyone!

Just dropped Tesar this note on his restaurant website:

“John, since you don’t like Susan Collins and are threatening to take away your seafood business from her state in retribution, I’ve posted in a couple of places asking people not to patronize any of your restaurants. That way you won’t need to source your seafood from alternate sources to your current suppliers in Maine. I just wonder how a worthless a$$hole like you gets by in this world with all your hatred for people who hold opinions that differ with yours. I’d love to read that you are filing chapter 7.”

Maine is also famous for this......wild blueberry pie. A custom in New England is to eat pie for breakfast.

Shirley, you jest! There are actually a few places in the area that serve real seafood, not ground chum packaged to look like the real thing, then smothered in garlic so you can't tell it's bogus.

China? I don’t think I would eat there.

That’s my next goal. We hiked the Appalachian Trail around Pleasant Pond Mountain and Caratunk.

I love Maine and LL Bean is one of my favorite companies - consistent quality and good service for decades.
I suspect the so-called boycott will scarcely be noticed.
