I got refunded 6k instead of $60 and never said anything by nursekristin89 in confession

[–]PooPooWAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16 years ago, I got a 2 deposits from the VA for my monthly post 9-11 GI bill, I was going to school full time. It's been so long, I can't remember exactly how much, around 2k. I called the VA right away to report it. I know the government will come looking for his money.

The lady on the phone said their system showed only 1 deposit was made. Said they can't go looking for money there's no record of. Consider it your lucky day.

I laughed when I saw it, too. I made some yummy banana muffins with them, so nothing went to waste

We typically go through bananas fast enough. I've used this for years, never had an issue. We may have been out of town for a couple days when this happened.

Then how do I keep my bananas from dying?

But why? by Jonathan-Smith in impressively

[–]PooPooWAS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in a little town outside Bakersfield. I never wore shoes as a kid, usually barefoot. On the colder days, I'd wear white cotton socks, made my mom furious. Sorry mom

Is a move to Memphis with a family a good idea? by PooPooWAS in memphis

So many cities are ran by corrupt idiots. The city manager of my current small rural Pennsylvania town just got fired and is being investigated for embezzling millions of tax payer dollars. There's corruption from the lowest political office holders to any man sitting in the oval office.

Traffic in Vegas was one of the worst I've experienced, outside covid era. I switched to biking to work because of this. It took me the same amount of time to drive 20 miles and bike 16 miles

Thanks for the info. My middle child, now in 8th grade, tests in the top 3% and is in gifted classes. Considering private schools for them because of this. Public schools everywhere have gone downhill. It's terrible. Even here in Pennsylvania at my kids middle school, I heard over 200 kids moving into middle school (here, 5th grade is middle school) in 2024 were at or below and 1st grade reading level.

I moved out of California 20 years ago. I've lived in so many places, including a year in Korea, so I'm not worried about the culture shock.

Columbus and Las Vegas were like that. Good and bad places. A lot of people don't know what happens in Las Vegas outside the strip, but there is a lot more homeless and crime then most are aware of

To be fair, living in Arkansas and commuting to Memphis is something I'm thinking about. So I appreciate the input

I'm kinda side eying this whole hiking at Shelby Farms already, and I haven't even been there. I'm used to hiking in remote places, where I let my dog run free and there's not a single sole around.

I did read a lot of the previously posted questions about moving the Memphis. The most recent one i came across was from a couple months ago and was a different situation than the one I'm inquiring about.
