MIKE'S MEMORIES: A fond farewell to 'Friday Night Lights'
It is Sunday morning and I have just come from a long walk back in Torrington on the top of the hill. Just the hill is not what I remembered as a kid, sadly. I miss what the top of East Main street used to look like back when I was a kid. Recently I looked up what houses were selling for about 20 years ago versus today and believe it or not,they were selling for more,back then, with close to 10 percent interest rates-really think about that. A voice from the past. I read your column in the paper and have thought to write many times ... but time gets away. I remember you and Ed (your dad) coming up to the lake and going fishing from time to time. I have great memories of growing up in T town ... sitting with Andy the candy man in the front entrance of Mertz’s. Having people know me just by Jim and Karla’s kid, Dottie or Clara’s granddaughter. Taking the candy-striper to downtown. Riding the big horse near the shoe section of Mertz’s. People just popping in and out when we were at the lake in the summer. Good times. In 2000 I moved to Canada for 7 years. I married a Canadian and was up for an adventure. I had come home for visits in the years away but never really saw what had happened to the area ... lots more building, Kohls where the golf course use to be in Canton, things like that. When I moved back home in 2007 to be close to Dad because of his illness, I got to see the downfall of Torrington. It was sad to see what had happened.

Wanted:brushless motor and esc
I am building a project and im looking for 2 brushless motors with cooling jackets and esc's something along the lines of stock proboat motors and esc's . I am lloking to maybe trade i build custom rc boat trailers i would be willing to build a very nice alum. Boat trailer for your boat with full lighting or i can build you a car hauler trailer to haul your car or crawler if you have a set of motors and esc's you can part with i will build and ship the trailer for you in trade within the lower 48 i can send pictures of trailers i have built or one i am in the middle of building now the one im building now will hold upto a 46inch hull. I will build any size You will need to be more specific in your request for motors. What size motors do you need - 280, 380, 540....? Length? Voltage? Application? I assume from the low amp ESC request that you are looking for smaller motors. You ask for 1800 Kv or "bigger" - are 2650 KV motors too much? How much are you willing to "spend" in your trade (how much are your trailers worth)? Help us to help you by providing as much information as you can. i am looking for like stock motors and esc's from like proboat any of there motors and esc's i.e. blackjack 26, miss gieco, miss elam, any motor's or ecs's like that will work great. i sell my trailers at diff. prices basic trailer rolling is around 200.00 for a fit to a cat hull 30" or rc drift car and then they go up from there for options added water proof lights are extra depending on size of trailer and light count. how many axels wheel and tire count, water proof front box for storage, slide on bunks or roller bunks rollers are extra so to be honest a basic trailer ready to hook up and haul a boat is $200.00 + shipping and paypall fees i price the trailers out by the size and extras and add ons they can get up to $375.
