In recent years, you have likely noticed that the size of your favorite chocolate bar is shrinking while the price is rising. And it looks like things are about to get worse. There is a significant cocoa shortage worldwide, and prices are beginning to increase. The days of a cheap candy bar are likely gone for good. And the store shelves may not be stocked quite as well, as candy makers adjust to the shortage. Dark chocolate lovers will feel the pain most since it contains more cocoa powder than milk chocolate...

Recently, I've seen a lot of stories about people getting rich with their side hustle. It reminds me of the days when I started what you could consider my side hustle. When I started my company in the early 2000s, it was something to supplement my radio work. Now, I don't think my work on the side qualifies because even in the beginning, it wasn't something I would spend a few hours working on and make a lot of money. But these days, everyone's looking for a quick fix. While I love the idea, it's never that simple...

In recent years, a phone call to customer service has been something that many of us dread. It doesn't matter what the product is; we all find that it's a frustrating experience. It's never been fun, but it's gotten more frustrating in recent years because most call centers aren't here in the U.S. For many, 'Bob" in customer service isn't telling us his real name. He's likely answering your call from a foreign country. And while he may technically speak English, his accent is difficult to understand...

Today, we live in a world where people constantly seek attention. It's not everyone, but those who desire to be treated special are multiplying. It's almost like they're shouting look at me to anyone who will listen. Perhaps social media is to blame. Many people think that's the case. But it's just one avenue where people find others who indulge their needs. The desire for this attention may have always been there, but lately, some have found ways to get what they want...

As I get older, I sometimes have problems sleeping. Sometimes, I can't fall asleep, while other times, I wake up in the middle of the night and can't fall back asleep. I had that problem the other night. And for some reason, my mind wandered to the recent Powerball jackpot. There was one winner over the weekend, and now they have a big choice: do they take a 1.3 billion dollar annuity over the next 30 years or take a one-time lump sum payout of $621 million? I don't know why I cared, but I couldn't determine which option I'd choose...

For many people, today is an exciting day. Another eclipse will traverse much of the United States. The last major eclipse that crossed the country was just seven years ago. While the path of today's solar eclipse crosses a more significant part of the country than any other in our lifetime, it's not like they're uncommon. An eclipse happens somewhere on Earth roughly every 18 months. But from how people act, you'd think we never had one before. I understand the excitement for children, but the enthusiasm from some adults is over the top...

While I understand the economics of sports, I honestly wonder why each league tries to keep extending the length of their schedule. Sure, more games mean more chances to make money. But sometimes, that doesn't make sense. Take baseball as an example. Why are we playing games right now in most northern cities? It's too cold, and the likelihood of rain or snow has increased. Chicago, Cleveland, and New York have all been dealing with the weather over the last few weeks, making it tough to play...

The White House wants NASA to develop a new time zone for the Moon. You would think they would be more focused on the pressing issues in our world, but this is another priority. Because of the different gravitational field strength on the Moon, time moves quicker there relative to Earth. This new time zone will be called Coordinated Lunar Time and use the acronym LTC. The government feels the need since other countries and private ventures will travel there. They think this will increase safety...

For the last few years, Amazon has been experimenting with what they called just walk out technology. Their Amazon Fresh and Amazon Go stores had no cashiers or cash registers; your app tracked what you bought. Amazon hoped to sell the technology to other companies but wanted to iron out the problems in their few retail locations first. They pulled the plug on this experiment this week because it didn't work. The computers never picked up everything, so humans had to oversee the process, and that defeats the point...

For decades, people got their news from a few trusted sources. For many, it was the daily newspaper or the nightly news on TV. But thanks to technology, that has changed. Now, we can get up-to-the-minute news on our phones any time of the day or night. But with many news apps, the stories aren't always brand new. The algorithm determines what news we see. Often, you need to check the date of a news story to see if it's recent news or something posted a few days ago. And this time of year, you really need to look closely...
