Beer On Demand: Finally, Some Philadelphia Entrepreneurial Spirit

t_67721c5k.jpg

Worried about Philadelphia's much-lamented "brain drain" and its effect on our economy? As the Daily Pennsylvanian reports it, great white hopes like Hunter Elwood should assuage your fears:

It's Monday night. Some friends are coming over to watch the football game in a couple hours. Only one thing is on your mind - we're going to need beer.

That's where Hunter Elwood - and his Web site, Beerrightnow.com - comes in.

...

"You can just log on to a Web site, and then within two minutes have your order ready, and then you can just sit back and relax and not do anything," Elwood said. He anticipates $1 million in revenue this year.

If Mayor Street knows what's good for him, Hunter Elwood should get keys to the city, his own light display at the Cira Centre, and a ticker tape parade down Broad Street. Seriously, why didn't we think of this?
