    Easter Eggs (MM #5142)
    2025/04/20
    Today, many kids will get a visit from the Easter Bunny. Many will get candy, chocolate bunnies, marshmallow Peeps, and money. In my day, we dyed Easter Eggs. It was the same thing every year. My parents would buy a dozen eggs, my mother would hard boil them, and then I'd pull out the Paas kit to make them colorful. Then, the Easter Bunny would stop by our house, go to the refrigerator, and hide the dozen we dyed around the house. I never got candy. The highlight was knowing that we'd have egg salad sandwiches for a few days. Today, I doubt that many kids boil those eggs. They cost a lot more than candy...

    Diet Rite (MM #5141)
    2025/04/19
    Diet soda is a big business. It has been for decades. Today, everyone loves Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi. But they weren't the first, not even close. Coke first gave us Tab. Pepsi offered the short-lived Patio. However, the first brand that paved the way for artificially sweetened soft drinks was created by RC Cola in the 50s. It was called Diet Rite. I say 'was", because Dr Pepper/Keurig, the company that most recently owned the brand, has quietly pulled the plug. It started regionally in 1958 and went nationwide in 1962. Within a year, it was the fourth best-selling soda brand behind Coke, Pepsi, and RC...

    IYKYK (MM #5140)
    2025/04/18
    I'm not sure if you'd consider this an acronym, but I see a slang term on social media almost every day: IYKYK. Often, it's written as a hashtag, but rarely do you see it written in full. It's short for the phrase, if you know, you know. It was cute the first hundred times I saw it in the 2010s. Now, not so much. I spend a lot of time on social media, so I probably see it more often than you do. But this seems like one of those things that people do to beg for comments. Because rarely do I have a clue what they're talking about. I guess I'm just not as knowledgeable as I think...

    Dress Code (MM #5139)
    2025/04/17
    I've never been a trendy dresser, but I always had my own style. Sometimes the choices were silly, but I don't have many regrets. Back in my high school days, there was talk about instituting a dress code at our public school. I was part of the protests that changed the school board's mind. So when I saw the story the other day, where Starbucks announced that they going to have one for their baristas, I was shocked. I have no problem with making everyone wear a green apron. But telling staffers the color of the shirt and pants they must wear makes no sense...

    Live Longer (MM #5137)
    2025/04/16
    Most of us have the desire to live longer. And we all know that a sensible diet and moderate exercise will help us achieve those goals. But one doctor claims that he has an addition to the basics. Sunshine is one of those, but the other might be controversial. This doctor recommends jump-starting your hydration each morning. We all know that drinking enough water is essential. But the doc feels you can boost your hydration level by tweaking your first glass in the morning. He recommends starting with warm water and adding two ingredients to get things moving...

    401k (MM #5137)
    2025/04/15
    If you have a 401k, IRA, or any other type of retirement account that relies on stocks and bonds, you're likely feeling nervous right now. With the potential for a recession near and the on-again, off-again tariffs from the White House looming, it only makes sense to worry. The closer you are to retirement age likely plays into your stress level. I just received my quarterly IRA statement over the weekend and enjoyed a slight gain. My 401 k statement also came in last week, but I haven't looked at it. I hate to think about how much money I've lost in my retirement savings accounts over the years...

    Prize Patrol (MM #5136)
    2025/04/14
    If you grew up as a baby boomer, anytime you see a giant ceremonial check, your mind likely drifts to the Publishers Clearing House and their prize patrol. Their contest forms have been found in our mailboxes for decades. The PCH is the latest iconic American company to file for bankruptcy. But they don't plan on going away. Back in the late 1990s, they began pivoting toward the internet. While they continued to use the postal service to deliver their direct mail pieces, with this bankruptcy they're killing off the mail business. You'll still have chances to win, but everything will be strictly online...

    Stuffed Crust Pizza (MM #5135)
    2025/04/13
    Domino's is currently running a commercial for their new stuffed crust pizza. The premise of this ad is that people claim that Domino's Parmesan Stuffed Crust pizza is better than their old version. There's only one problem: they've never offered this style of pizza before. But people think they have. When you're the top brand, people often think that a product offered by a competitor is yours. I understand it's best to be the leader. But in this case, does this say something more? When people are eating another brand, they think it's Domino's. But who made money on that pizza? Someone else did...
