Vacationland, clearly.
I'd like to report in on a rather disturbing trend that exists all across the state of Maine: using the state name to make obnoxious puns in business names. Recently seen examples include Mainely Roofing, Mainely Towing, Mainely Hair (ouch! double pun), Mainely Cabinets...
One of my friends suggests that since these businesses are "mainly" selling one product, the likely secondary source of income is dealing drugs? Another friend is considering opening a business called "Mainely Naming Consultants". For the record, his secondary income would likely be selling heroin.
Deserving its own paragraph is the dining establishment named Bagel Mainea. Apparently this is supposed to be pronounced "mainia". Right.
For people who have a pretty extensive amount of state pride, Mainers (or Mainiacs?) don't seem to mind selling out their state name regularly. If only we could do this with Kansas, I think it would definitely increase tourism.
