Are you a Mainah or a Flatlandah?

Are you from away, or from Maine? Are you a Maniac or just a wannabe? Take this quiz and you'll find out how you rate on the Maine scale. Don't be, as my grammy said, "Behind the egg ball," take the quiz.

This is on a website somewhere: Mainers use silly words like cunnin', pungin', ayup, and fetchin'. None of these have any foundation in the english language. I guess the sheep must have taught them to the Mainers." Bull tripe, I tell ya.
