heh...maybe I should have mentioned that it's generally called "slutjuice" when it's being fed to the female of the specie...no matter though, a double Allen's and milk your way it is...

Maine sounds AWESOME

I'm gonna go ahead and assume you're being sarcastic...no matter though, we're used to it and we could give two shits.

Out of staters joke about our drinking habits up here, and while it's true that we drink our fair share, we don't see it as any laughing matter...it's just one of the realities of living in a scenic but economically barren place.

That's why I like reading these boards...it's nice to see some others who take drinking seriously, not a bunch of do-gooder nanny types who freak the fuck out when you drink more than their view of normal...

Sorry if I'm rambling, but I'm half in the bag as I'm typing this. Not out of the norm of half of the other posts I've read here...

Nahh, it does sound straight-up kind of cool. My old man's friend actually saw this thing about like islands or small-towns in maine where they're trying to preserve their way of life even though the populations up there are diminishing and not repleneshing, so they have programs that bring in people to teach for two-year terms and they get set up up there with housing and a nice stipend, etc. It almost seems like something I'd like to do. But will I ever leave Philly? I doubt it.

That sounds about right...Maine's quickly turning into a retirement/trust fund community, much to the chagrin of us natives...

Oh well, someday I'll make enough money to move back here and live comfortably....yeah right.

Sorry if I was an asshole...I just tend to be defensive - it comes with the territory, I suppose. We're used to outsiders coming in and trying to change the way things are up here. We're normally quite receptive to people who move up here to enjoy the way of life that we live, but it's hard to tell the difference nowadays...

So where are you in Maine, chief ?

Right now, I'm in Orono attending the University of Maine. I grew up in Brooklin, a really small coastal town near Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park.

Cool, don't see too many Mainers on here. I live in Standish, down on the west shore of Sebago, but I don't drink coffee brandy.

Cheers
