The Mason Minute

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. Some restaurants are already making changes; expect many others to follow suit shortly...

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. And you'd better keep your phone handy...

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...

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...

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...

I had to go out and get license plates for one of my cars yesterday. And every time I do it, it's a challenge. You can apply for your vehicle registration online or by mail. 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. And because it was the last weekday of the month, the parking lot was full and the lines were long. But once I parked, I was able to get in and out in just a matter of minutes. Most people don't understand the process. And I don't know why...

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? While we may learn about what happened in our past, it doesn’t necessarily change what’s happening in the present...

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...

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. I was on Facebook when all of a sudden, everything on the page reset. It was as if someone had hit a big refresh button, and I wasn’t even scrolling. I was actually reading something, and then, in a flash, it disappeared, and everything reset. It didn’t take long to realize what big news made this happen...

I don't do much grocery shopping these days. Years ago, I discovered that staying away from the supermarket helps me avoid buying unnecessary things. I don't know how much it's helped my waistline, but that's what I tell myself. My wife went to the store yesterday and let me know we were switching the cut of ground beef we buy. We always opt for the leanest ground beef, because it's just a bit healthier. But when she came home yesterday, she told me we need to make a change. That's because ground beef is now over $10 a pound. And while we can afford it, I'm thankful we don't have a lot of mouths to feed...

School has begun in many parts of America. Some high schools went back as early as the first of August. And many colleges have also returned. Last week, numerous schools across the country received bomb threats. All were deemed false alarms. These have happened for decades. And more times than not, it’s just somebody trying to cause trouble. One of our local schools had a bomb threat on Thursday, and after investigation, it was deemed a false report. But the interesting part is that many of these events, including the one here in Nashville, were called coordinated threats...

I've long been fascinated with new technology. While I understand the fear that some people feel when accepting something new, I wonder why we tend to embrace everything the way it's always been. Take reading, for example. For so long, we read things like newspapers and books. It didn't matter if those books were hard or soft-bound; they were familiar. It's the same thing with newspapers. But now, thanks to technology, we can do all those things with a tool like an e-reader or Kindle. I think I got my first Kindle over 15 years ago, and it still surprises me why some people still resist the convenience...

I know that I've said this before, but I love brunch. It's the best of two worlds: breakfast and lunch. I've never understood why brunch is better than breakfast, but it's a whole different feeling, and it's just due to the time you eat. Decades ago, there were always one or two big downtown hotels that served a brunch buffet on the weekend. And it didn't just happen in major cities. Cities of all sizes always had one or two swanky hotels that were known for this extravagance. I haven't experienced one in years, but for those towns that still offer the experience, they may not for much longer...

It’s been all over the Internet for a few days and even made the national news. Cracker Barrel has decided to change its decor as well as its logo. Gone is the old man sitting next to the barrel, and they even changed the shape of the logo, too. People are upset. But these changes have been coming for a long time. Cracker Barrel is struggling. Their clientele is getting older, and the folksy restaurant with the big old gift shop doesn’t appeal to young people. They’ve spent the last few years trying to figure out what they need to change. While decor and a logo are a place to start, there’s something else they need to do...

I didn’t learn this until the other day, but bananas are the most popular fruit worldwide. In America, they’re neck and neck with apples. I like them, but I don’t enjoy eating them by hand. I prefer them sliced on top of cereal, baked into bread, or paired with ice cream, lots of sauce, and whipped cream. They’re one of the most affordable fruits. But growers tell us we should be preparing for a banana shortage. Climate change is partly to blame. They’re only grown in certain parts of the world, and 80% of them come from just two regions in Latin America. We don’t need to panic yet, but many are concerned...

I know I sometimes talk too much about my first-world problems. Yesterday, I was complaining about smelly dumpsters. Today, I'm talking about something that goes hand-in-hand with those dumpsters; that's cement mixers and dump trucks. I've complained about dump trucks before, about my frustration with their signs telling you to stay back 200 feet. Due to the constant construction, there are a lot of cement trucks in Nashville. And this isn't just a Nashville problem. It happens no matter where there's construction. Cement mixers don't move quickly and often have trouble staying in their lane...

Nashville is a town that’s always under construction. Not only are we building more houses, condos, and apartments, we’re also building more restaurants, hotels, and high-rises. And with all this construction comes a constant rumble of dump trucks and trucks carrying dumpsters. I drive to work using city streets, and I frequently find myself behind trucks carrying these dumpsters to the city dump. And while they usually have business materials in them, they still stink. The smell is awful. I would think they wash them out, but it sure doesn’t smell that way...

I'm not exaggerating, but it seems the whole world is obsessed with pickles right now. Walking through the grocery store, I see more pickle-flavored products than ever before. Fast food restaurants like Sonic currently have limited-time-only burgers, tots, and drinks that are pickle-flavored. For me, pickles are something I throw on a burger or eat alongside a sandwich. But I don't feel the need to have everything pickle-flavored. Like many trends, this could come and go. But I get the sense that this one could last for a while. At this point, it's hard to say.

If you’re like me, you check your email multiple times per day. In a perfect world, we’d only get messages that we want. But a lot of our mailbox is now filled with junk mail and marketing messages. I’m pretty selective about who I share my email address with. So I’m usually interested when one of these stores sends me an email. But I’ve noticed a recent trend.

Through the years, I’ve had the good fortune to eat at some fantastic restaurants throughout America. And while they were great meals, some even memorable, most were just expensive. But there’s one memory in life that stays with me, and that was eating dinner at one of those inexpensive steakhouses back in the day. And it wasn’t because the steak was that good, it was that all you can eat salad bar, and those big fat yeast rolls. In my younger days, when I barely had enough money to get through the month, it was always exciting when I could go out for one of those big dinners.
