Attracted (MM #4809)

Making A Decision (MM #4808)
For some people, making a decision, no matter what it is, is difficult to do. It may be the way that they're wired. But recently, more people seem to be afraid to make decisions. It didn't used to be…

Annoying People (MM #4806)
Yesterday was a frustrating day. No matter where I was going or what I did, I ran into annoying people. And I mean that both figuratively and literally. On the highway, everyone was in a hurry, excep…

Free Refills (MM #4805)
I can't remember the first time a restaurant offered free refills for their beverages. Back in the day, coffee and tea came with refills, while things like Coke and Pepsi didn't. But over the last fe…

Wide Right Turn (MM #4804)
I've noticed these signs on the back of big trucks for years. They usually read this vehicle makes wide right turns. Sometimes, you get stuck behind one, but it's a minor inconvenience. That all chan…

Argument (MM #4803)

Speaking Of Skunks (MM #4802)
Yesterday, I was talking about skunky beer. Today, we're speaking of skunks, or technically, I'm focusing on a skunk. We've had one visit our backyard nightly for the last week or so. It shows up jus…

Skunky (MM #4801)
You understand what skunky means if you've ever drank a glass of stale iced tea or perhaps a nasty mug of beer. Part of the reason I stopped drinking beer decades ago is because I had too many skunky…

Armored Cars (MM #4800)
We all have little quirks that make us who we are. For some, they're fears and often irrational. For example, I have a fear of being around armored cars. Technically, I guess we should call them armo…

Tough Day (MM #4799)
It's Mother's Day. For many, it's a day to honor our mother and remind her that we care. Of course, I can argue that we should look at every day throughout the year similarly. But while it's a day to…

Bachelor Party (MM #4798)
One of our nephews is in Nashville this weekend for a bachelor party. When he told us he was coming, I only had one question: Why Nashville? I'm no expert when it comes to the subject, but I have bee…

Simple Bracket (MM #4797)
No one ever said that simple was easy. A few weeks ago, one of the brackets that hold up the handrail on the steps leading to our second floor broke. If you have a staircase in your house, you know t…

Straight-Line Winds (MM #4796)
Many parts of the country have dealt with tornadoes over the last few days. The warmer weather and severe storms often make for a troubling combination this time of year. I remember going through tor…

The Backyard (MM #4795)
Many people like to spend time in the backyard during this time of year. It could be gardening, hanging out with friends, or even grilling out. While I enjoyed spending time outdoors in my younger da…

Get The Message (MM #4794)
Consumers are frustrated. For the last couple of years, the cost of everything has skyrocketed. For a while, people kept buying what they needed. But recently, they've screamed enough is enough. Fewe…

Jam And Jelly (MM #4793)
I'm sure someone explained this to me years ago, but I couldn't remember how jam and jelly differ. And what about preserves? Recently, we went out for dinner, and they had some little containers to u…

Head North (MM #4792)
While I don't own a self-driving car, I often joke that the one thing I can do is head north with my eyes closed. If I drive any highway outside of Nashville, I usually head north on Interstate 65. O…

Point Of Reference (MM #4791)
