demo machine?

 a technician was in to look at the envelope stuffer and spoke of going back to the office to see if the sensor needed was on the 'demo machine' because no demos were being done at this time. i hadn't heard of such a thing before. i had heard of prototypes and figured a machine as big as this one was only used for more important things. the tech was in twice, leaving before i went to lunch and was back in the afternoon and another tech showed up. don't know if any parts were replaced but the machine was taken apart to clean the sensors. near the end of the day it was running again, and i had just enough time to get the most important checks run through and out the door. the largest files have a longer timeframe allowed and will be done the next day. in the evening i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 45 cents. so the next save-up goal has been reached, a can of beer. i drank the can of modelo with my dinner so now there is just one can waiting. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when sheldon discovered a letter written by howard's dad. it was followed by the one where sheldon said 'nice try, blockheads' when he drew charlie brown on a dry-erase board. it was also when leonard got him a 'train day' to keep him busy and amy was willing to drive fast to get to the place, after she was fantasizing. during my searching for the day i found a schedule of events for a festival i like attending, although the buttons are not on sale yet. i often wait to get the button until i arrive at the festival as i don't need it until then for an event such as the pancake breakfast.
