You might be a Harpswellite if...

By Nelson Barter and his messmates of the Harpswell Militia

…you've shucked out a scallop on a boat rail with a bait knife and sucked it down raw but you won't eat a fish sandwich from a fast food restaurant because they "taste kinda nasty".
…you've ever looked at seals, dolphins, porpoises or sea birds and thought "I wonder what those taste like."
…you've ever reached the end of fall and realized that sandwiches just don't taste right anymore without a little bait juice.
…recycling food waste means throwing the shells back overboard.
…you know what a raw clam tastes like but people who eat kelp are "kinda weird".
…you've heard the phrase "Needs moah butta deah."
…you know which of your friends you can invite over for roadkill without lying about it's origins.
