How did you do?

*All Five Right: You are a true blooded Mainer.  So was your Dad… and his Dad… and his Dad.

*4 Right: You are on your way to Mainer-ness.  General Chamerlain could tell your flaws, but to most, you are a Mainer.

*3 Right: Nice Try! But, if you were a Mainer, you would know that 3 out of 5 doesn’t cut it here.  You probably don’t even say, “Wicked” three or four times a day.

*2, 1, or None Right:  You still think Portland is only in Oregon and you believe “Y’all” should be added to the dictionary.
