The mind boggles. Maine just doesn’t seem to be the type of place for it. I imagine Pepperidge Farm-voiced denizens, like Lem and Ephas from WROR commenting on it.
“I Hyeah they got one o’ them topless coffee shops in Vassalboro.”
This isn’t a first for Maine - back when I lived in Portland (1999 or so) there was a strip club that was open for coffee and donuts in the morning. Right across from the Home Depot. It was pretty odd. They opened a small part of the club with some booths, and a mostly naked lady would bring you coffee.
Ah. Mark’s Show Place … now Platinum Plus. But they were just your basic titty-bar who had the the great idea of opening early. That wasn’t your down home coffee shop with waitresses who just happen to be topless. It was more of a house-music, bass and drum thumping, strobe/laser light monstrosity with just about full on naked chicks doing dirty dirty things.
