What do Mainers think of Texans? (Hope: move, friendly, place)

[puntin]

I personally don't care where a person is from. Whether I like someone has nothing to do with where they are from, but how that individual acts. I guess I prefer not to stereotype people.

We can't forget the hands-on lessons nothing but living life can deliver. Some of the most intelligent people I know are "uneducated."

My brother grew up in GA and his accent was very strong when he come up and visit me and my mom. I remember he moved home for a year after a divorce, and when he crossed the border into Canada.. "Sir, where you from?"
Princeton Maine sir.
~he was given a funny stare and then pulled in for ID checking.

Wow.. what was this? Looks like someone was in the sauce. I can't make heads, eyes or tails out of it. I thought it was me from the pain of tooth removal.

Some troll made the remark that the only educated people they knew in Maine were transplants from another State.

[Elcarim]

I seem to remember that comment, B! My take - Educated people who start out in other states end up in Maine for a reason!

[RMoore007]

I have proof. I'm not very smart and I'm not in Maine.

I think I need another drink...

Just say that you are returning to your roots....you should be fine.
