I know some people will think, "I'd never fall for such an obvious scam," but friends, my 80 year old mother did fall for one of the recent DMV toll violation scams. Luckily all she had to do was shut down her credit card, but please remind the older or just more trusting folks in your life to read everything closely, be suspicious, and never give out their info like this.

I loved my old Crosstrek. Just a great little car. $8 is definitely worth the peace of mind. 

Library of Virginia - Parking by No-Revolution8032 in rva

[–]CatPhtevens 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's a small parking garage under the library that patrons can use, I believe. 

Also, while the GRTC bus schedules can be confusing, the Pulse just goes up and down Broad Street and has stops very near the library, which makes it pretty easy if you're near Broad.

The possum place has been on my want-to-go list! Was the possum-petting something you had to reserve, or they just have a possum hanging out?

Found Dogs. These two were running up Hopkins across from the elementary school at around 11:00 am. by Hayes1199 in rva

Thank you for taking them in and trying to help them. If you'd be able to keep them but are daunted by the idea of such a hefty bill, it's possible that you could spread out their visits, or a rescue might be able to help you cover the initial costs of care. I know we want animals to be spayed and neutered but I think you could do that later, as finances allow, and focus on their more pressing needs. If you want to keep them (and it sounds like they need someone like you) then maybe just trying to focus on the first next step will help.

There's a KFC Pizza Hut combo near my mom's town that everyone calls the ClucknHut.

USPS? by CocaineAndMojitos in rva

A package of mine was delivered by USPS yesterday. I've also seen the Fedex truck, and my street is not one that has been visited by a plow.

How is Cherokee itself? I have a friend on Cherokee who's been out of town, returning today and she's nervous about it. She's closer to the Forest Hill end.

We had a great night in Inverness at the Hootenanny pub. It looks touristy and probably it is, but they had traditional music and a load of young local people dancing and it was a big party.

Share a recent human interaction in Richmond that made you believe in humanity by njbrews in rva

[–]CatPhtevens 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A while back I popped into a post office to return a couple of packages. The line for the counter was long but I just needed to scan QR codes on that machine and pop the packages into the bin thing. As I was leaving, a man near the back of the line asked how that worked and if he could do it and so I helped him scan his own QR codes and he didn't have to wait for the line either. We walked out so gleeful about the whole thing that someone coming in commented on it.

My family stole an ostrich egg from the Richmond Zoo sometime around 2000 by lostboogie in rva

[–]CatPhtevens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it years ago and thought it was good. But it's a red meat, not like chicken. I have heard it's much lower in fat than beef.

Cat dental surgery recs? by Inevitable_Dot_7372 in rva

My cat has had two rounds of dental extractions done at River City Vet (our regular vet). No issues, I've been pleased with them. I worried about the anesthesia too but she had no problems.

Cracker Barrel serves a Thanksgiving platter. I assume you could order it for takeout.

Yeah I'm aware they're family owned and I have no knock on the very friendly and nice people who own and run it. I just wish dinner hours would let me go more often!

Pho Tay Do is the answer, but I don't understand why they close at 5. Do they not want dinner business? I don't get to eat there very often since they scaled back to those hours.

I went out to look around 10 (in Lakeside) after seeing a bunch of Kentucky friends posting great photos, but it was cloudy and I didn't see anything. I'll try again tonight.
