Your Opinion (MM #5290)

9/15/2025
We all have opinions. It doesn’t matter what the subject is; when pressed, most people will share their feelings. But in the world of social media, you now have a soapbox to share your opinion anytime you want. We witnessed it this week with the death of political activist Charlie Kirk. But for some, sharing their opinion causes them problems, not only online, but with their employer, and the one thing that many forget is that while it’s okay to have opinions, that doesn’t mean you need to share them with others. Sometimes, it’s best to say nothing at all...

Chocolate Prices (MM #5289)

9/14/2025
I know I say it all the time, but times have changed. Sure, a lot of it has to do with society, our culture, and even technology. But sometimes it's the simple things. When I was growing up, you could find a few cents in your piggy bank, or grab some change from your parents, and go to the store and buy a candy bar. How simple things were. Of course, in my parents' era, a candy bar was a nickel. In my preteen years, it was a quarter. It's not the same for kids today. Chocolate prices are going up, and Hershey says they could jump anywhere from 50¢ to a dollar. And that would bring the price of a regular candy bar up to almost $2...

Bad Teeth (MM #5288)

9/13/2025
I often wonder what percentage of today's kids get braces. If you look closely at my picture, you can see I didn't get them as a kid. My two bottom teeth in the front are crooked, and there's a gap between my top two front teeth. I really don't think that much about it. I'm not that bothered. But something has changed throughout the years, and I noticed it the other night while watching some YouTube videos of some old rock bands. I saw how many of those musicians had bad teeth and needed dental work. Back in those days, most didn't worry about things like teeth. It's much different today...

Return To Office (MM #5287)

9/12/2025
If you work in the 9-to-5 world, you likely hear people tossing around buzzwords like office culture and return to office. Every company is still dealing with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s been over three years since many people returned to what some called the new normal. But working from home, which was the norm for a few years, became the preferred way to work for many employees. And while many companies put up with it for a while, they now want business to get back to normal. But what does that mean today? It looks like the divide between management and staff is getting wider every day...

More Hatred (MM #5286)

9/11/2025
Some are saying that we are experiencing more hatred right now than at any other time in the history of America. I haven't been here for nearly 250 years, but I sometimes wonder if it's true. It's challenging to compare how everyone truly felt during the civil rights era, World War II, or even the Civil War. With yesterday's killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, some say this proves the point. I just look at the calendar and think back 24 years. It was a time when Americans came together. One thing we all can agree on is that these are very depressing times...

High Speed (MM #5285)

For most of us, things like electricity, water, and gas are some of the most essential things in our lives. Over the last few decades, many of us have added high-speed Internet to that list. We've reached the point where the speed and stability of our connection are most important. With all the devices and all of the streaming we do, we need something dependable and very fast in our neighborhood. We've had a few options over the years. Some are good, some not so much. But for the last few years, there have been rumors that Google Fiber was coming to our neighborhood. And from what I saw yesterday, it looks like they're here...

Step Off The Curb (MM #5284)

9/9/2025
It's hard to believe that Nashville has been a part of my life for so long. I made my first trip to Nashville about this time, 46 years ago. And I never thought I'd end up here full-time. But soon I'll be looking at 20 years here in the Music City. And while I'm not a lifer, I've seen a lot of change here in the city as it's grown. I spent some of my formative years in Virginia Beach, so I know a little bit about tourist destinations. And that's what I've seen Nashville become. As I drive to work every day, I'm worried about the people visiting our city as they try to step off the curb. It's often hazardous...

What To Pack (MM #5283)

9/8/2025
I don't travel as much as I used to. And these days, when I do travel, it's usually for family functions. So, fortunately, there's not a lot of dressing up. But I'm still challenged figuring out what to pack on a regular basis. I've always been envious of my friends who travel for a living, and I have no problem sticking a week's worth of clothing into an overnight bag. That's never been an option for me because of my size. And when the weather starts to turn and the clothes get heavier, my suitcases get larger. We are on the road over the weekend, and it looks like summer weather is fading away because I had to pack for two seasons, and that's not easy to do...

Red Zone (MM #5282)

9/7/2025
It’s the first Sunday of the NFL season, and pretty much like I do every Sunday, I’ll have one of my TVs on the NFL Red Zone. But it may be the last time I do it. ESPN has entered into a partnership with the NFL to claim a stake in the NFL Network and its associated properties. And while the ink on the paperwork isn’t even dry, ESPN has already announced they’re going to be running ads during the Red Zone. I understand advertising pays the bills, but when ESPN already has 35 different channels, can’t they keep this one the way it is? The NFL doesn’t think this is a big deal, but it will soon find out...

Floppy (MM #5281)

9/6/2025
My wife and I've been together a long time; a little over 30 years at this point. We're coming up on our 28th anniversary. And at this point, there's not much she doesn't know about me or doesn't understand. I like to think it works both ways. Early on, she quickly learned that even though I'm fair-skinned, I often forget sunscreen when I'm in the sun for long periods of time. For years, she's been wanting me to get a floppy hat to wear when we're outdoors in the midday sun. It took a long time, but I'm finally breaking down and doing it. But I never realized how difficult it would be...

Just Getting Started (MM #5280)

9/5/2025
The college football season is just getting started. The NFL begins this weekend. Some say you can feel fall weather in the air. That’s just wishful thinking, at least for now. I saw something online the other day that bothered me, and it had nothing to do with politics. It was ESPN predicting the matchups for this year‘s bowl games and 12-team playoff. It came out a day or two after the football season started. Are we this desperate to get people to pay attention to us? Did they write these things just to get us upset? I wish I knew the answer, but it’s just silly. And sadly, people are already debating the subject...

Good Value (MM #5279)

For many of us, times are tight. The cost of everything is going up, but our wages aren't going up at the same rate. Nobody knows how this all plays out, but it's not just affecting people. It's affecting businesses, too. Many of our favorite restaurants have been in the news lately. Naturally, Cracker Barrel comes to mind. But there's been a lot of talk about the success of Chili's over the last couple of years. Many restaurants are responding to our pleas and seeking ways to generate revenue while offering good value.

Verification (MM #5278)

As you know, I spend much of my life online. All of us do. It's hard to believe I've been living online for over 20 years. And the more time that we spend online, the more advanced bad actors become. Because of that, we have to have secure passwords, pass phrases, or passkeys. But wait, there's more. You also need to have two-factor authentication set up for all of your logins, too. Plus, some websites or apps also require verification codes. Now, it's not enough to have just two steps; there has to be a third step. And experts tell us that's still not enough.

Losing (MM #5277)

I sometimes think we're a country that's become obsessed with winning and losing. But more importantly, we sometimes get more joy when others lose. I notice this phenomenon frequently in sports and, of course, in politics. Over the weekend, it was the kickoff to the college football season. One team wins, one team loses. However, some fans are already calling for certain coaches to be fired after just one game. And it's all because their team lost. We take these things too personally when, in reality, we have no direct involvement. There have always been fanatics among sports fans, but recently, I feel that more people are becoming too obsessed...

Conspiracy Theory (MM #5276)

Every now and then, I love a good conspiracy theory. And the ones I love are usually marketing-related. I’ve long been fascinated with the story of New Coke. Was it all a marketing ploy? Will likely never know. With all the discussion of Cracker Barrel the last few weeks, some are saying this was all a marketing ploy. They had been researching the interior remodel for a long time and were aware of the controversy. However, the sudden change in their new logo raises questions about whether they ever truly intended to alter it in the first place. I’m not sure what to believe, but I am very interested...

One Channel (MM #5275)

I’ll be the first to admit, I probably watched too much television. I come from the generation that grew up on the boob tube, and of course, having a father who worked in the business for over 25 years, it was an essential part of our lives. Scrolling through the TV guide the other day, I thought of something. With all the cable channels we have, what if there were a rule that said you can only have one channel playing any specific show at a time? Now that we have streaming services, we can binge-watch anything we want, but how many times a day is Law and Order on multiple stations? Sadly, I know the answer...

But it's often easier to do it in person. I went to one of the county clerk's satellite offices to obtain my license plate sticker for the upcoming year.

Neanderthals (MM #5273)

Growing up, I excelled in my science classes in school, but I never truly enjoyed them. I could handle the memorization, but I never understood why some people are so concerned with some parts of science. The fascination that some have with dinosaurs and prehistoric times is something I don’t understand. Some scientists are suggesting that Homo Sapiens and Neanderthals began interbreeding tens of thousands of years earlier than previously thought. That’s fascinating, but does it really matter?

Clarification (MM #5272)

I hear this all the time, and even say it myself, but we’re living in extraordinary times. Now I don’t know if this is something that happens as you age, or if things really have gotten weird. And this isn’t a rant about politics. It’s about clarification. I’ve noticed a trend on social media recently. Companies, both big and small, are making announcements about internal issues that most people wouldn’t know about if they weren’t being shared with us. When a problem employee leaves a business, the company goes online to announce that they’re no longer associated with the person. Doesn’t that breed more curiosity? Perhaps I’m overreacting...

Everything Reset (MM #5271)

Let’s be honest, most of us spend too much time on the Internet and on social media. I know I do. Additionally, my job requires me to spend time on social media. So I’m on a variety of social platforms from sunup to sundown, and often late into the night. And yesterday I witnessed something I’ve never seen before.
