root beer video

 in the evening i was on youtube and i was pleased to find a video about the history of root beer. no surprise how it claims that it began at a world's fair, in this case philadelphia in 1876. as many products were introduced this way. this was hires, created by a pharmacist, much like coca-cola was. i had heard of the five brands shown in the five-minute video, some i have drank and some i have not. i have had a and w, mug, and barq's, but not dad's or hires. a and w was the other brand also mentioned instead of just shown, likely due to the restaurants of the same name. i watched some of the baseball playoff game on Fox, rangers were leading against the orioles 6-0 when i laid down and fell asleep. their lead held up as the rangers won 7-1 to take the series, a three-game sweep. at work the inactive copier was picked up around midday, much like before the branch manager was the contact. called for service on the envelope stuffer near the end of the day, after re-booting it twice in the morning and once in the afternoon. i am told the tech will arrive around midday the next day. checked tracking numbers and it looks like most packages that had been delayed were finally delivered. day after a bank holiday, no surprise there. this explains why i had some to move from the branch. and another IRS envelope to send to atlanta. i didn't want it sitting 'on layover' in our office for long. late in the evening i went on a walk and found 32 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when the friends had a killer robot and were challenged by kripke, who destroyed it. and it was followed by the one where penny leonard and bernadette spy on amy's ate at a restaurant.
