Do not you like it when a enterprise/restaurant proprietor thinks up an excellent title for his or her enterprise? One thing memorable that may draw them in by phrases alone. Two very totally different companies in Wolcott have performed that to me.
For many of my life, I giggled each time I drove by means of Wolcott on RT. 69/Wolcott Street and handed Perfection Screw. Sure, I used to be 14 the primary time I noticed that signal, however even into my outdated age, I chuckled. C’mon, what an excellent thought it was to call your screw and rivet firm ‘Perfection Screw’. Sadly, the corporate with the title that made me smile is not in existence. Perfection Screw & Rivet was purchased out by one other firm, with a far much less fascinating title in 2019. So as to add insult to an already unhappy scenario, take a look at what the true property folks did in that photograph you see above, they lined the brilliance with an indication. Boooooo Drubner.
The excellent news is, there is a new brainiac in Wolcott. Mrs. Giant and I had been delighted to see The Hangry Fork, and their tagline ‘Come Hangry. Go away Joyful’. Assume Perfection Screw’s title as ‘The Wittiest Enterprise Title in Connecticut’. Hangry is such a descriptive phrase, I’ve gone by means of a lot of my life hangry, and did not notice it till somebody thought up the mash up of hungry and indignant. Hangry Fork is on 69 additionally, they’re simply earlier than you get to Cedar Lake, and Bristol, within the plaza at 2 North Avenue.
When you’re making an attempt to provide you with a very good title for your enterprise or restaurant, ask your pal who lives in Wolcott. Two of the very best names that for native companies come from the land sandwiched between Bristol and Waterbury, there’s one thing witty flowing in these waters over the Scoville Dam.

Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark praises Diana Taurasi before matchup
Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark praises Diana Taurasi before their game against each other at Footprint Center in Phoenix.
Three games in four days took a toll on the Phoenix Mercury as injuries limited the depth in Monday’s 83-72 loss to the Connecticut Sun at Footprint Center.
Against a dynamic team like the Sun, with the second-best record in the WNBA, the Mercury were a step slow and were decimated by the Sun’s depth. Four of the five starters were in double figures with Brionna Jones leading with 18 points. The Sun also played eight players, but outscored the Mercury’s bench, 20-2.
The Mercury (9-10) had a short bench against the Connecticut Sun (15-4) with starters Diana Taurasi and Becca Allen out for Monday’s contest. Guard Sophie Cunningham and forward Natasha Mack started in their place.
Taurasi dealt with back soreness, while Allen had a lower back issue. The two played the day before in the loss against the Indiana Fever. Taurasi played 32 minutes and logged 19 points and three assists. Allen recorded nine points on 25 minutes.
“When we were kids, we would play three games in one day and we’d be exhausted. I feel the same way right now,” guard Natasha Cloud said. “Moving forward, we need a decision to extend a few weeks of the season, especially with the Olympic year. It just protects players, mentally, emotionally, physically, all those things. We had a game yesterday at noon and we had a little bit of rest and are back at it again today. The toll it takes on your body from playing 30-plus minutes is a lot. You’re not going to hear any complaints from us, we showed up today.”
Brittney Griner and Kahleah Copper led all scorers with 21 points each. Griner sparked a big run in the fourth quarter with a much-needed 3-pointer. Griner, however, couldn’t make an impact on the boards, grabbing just two rebounds.
Copper had trouble seeing shots fall and went 1-for-4 in the first quarter. She managed seven field goals on 16 attempts, including one 3-pointer.
Rebounding was the difference in the game as the Sun dominated the boards with 37 rebounds to the Mercury’s 18. The Mercury were outscored 11-2 in second-chance points.
The Mercury, who average 27.8 3-point attempts, couldn’t find an answer from beyond the arc and shot 3-for-17 (17.6%).
Phoenix cut a 10-point deficit to three during the fourth quarter when Cloud assisted on Mack’s layup to start a 7-0 run. Cloud helped make it a close game with the Sun, getting her fourth double-double of the season with 18 points and 10 assists.
But the Sun edged the Mercury with 10 points on 11 free throw attempts and pulled ahead.
“It was our third game in four nights and we were playing eight people. I was proud of the way we competed, I don’t think you saw the best version of ourselves tonight. Everything was a little bit of a step slow,” head coach Nate Tibbetts said.
Guard Charisma Osborne was out with a left lower leg injury, which made Sug Sutton, Liz Dixon, and Mikiah Herbert Harrigan the only available options off the bench.
The Mercury travel to play the Dallas Wings on Wednesday at 5 p.m.
