Torrington High School
Public school in northwestern Connecticut. Prides itself on a lack of ceilings, random bomb threats, a series of nuclear fallout shelter tunnels, knife-wielding students, and at least one teacher who breaks and enters.
"And I'd like to congratulate the 1% of Torrington High Schools's graduating class who are not going on to UConn, Central Connecticut, NCCC-- or McDonalds."

Torrington
Torrington could be described as a run down ghetto with some nice middle class neighbrhoods and a few wealthy upper class neighborhoods/ developments. The "city" of Torrington has several dumpy plazas and strip malls along with the lack of any significant nightlife coupled with hardly any restaurants ! Unless you consider McDonalds and Burger King your restaurant of choice ! The closure of several major firms has left Torrington's local econamy stagnating and several other major manufacturers and retailers are considering leaving the area. The average income is around $40,000 and the population is around 35,000 and growing. Thankfully you can meet a lot of citizens who make more than $40,000 and live the lifestyle of most Americans !

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
