Mainiacs is a revered term, only given to those who are 5th generation (or more) born in Maine. If you were born in Maine but you are 1st - 4th generation, you're a Mainer. Everyone else is just "a person from away". I came to Maine for "just one semester," but now I'm "tenure track" which means I'm here to stay for a while. As I was in those first few months, I am very excited about this adventure and the chance to meet the great people of Maine.

9/11/08 Hurricane Ike
Wow. This hurricane is as big as Texas itself and heading straight towards Texas. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who is in its path and those who have left their homes behind in order to get out of its path.
