I just got a check in the mail, saying I overpaid when I went to the urgent care in April. I was puzzled because I hadn't even gotten a bill for it yet. I pulled the letter out of the garbage to reread it...
It was April 24th, it said. Today is only April 8th. This refund is from almost 2 years ago.
Are they THAT shortstaffed?

Sometimes things can indeed take awhile. When I moved in here (7ish yrs ago) I had $2000-worth of electrical work done to bring it up to date with today's juice-draining high tech gadgets. It took them nearly a year to the day to send the bill.

Went to the diner for lunch and ordered the rib special with the gash browns on the side. It was $5 off the usual price. The waitress came back and said they didn't have the baby back ribs I'd ordered, only the usual kind. Never having noticed they had 2 kinds of ribs on the menu, I said OK, I'll have the other kind. She brought out the half-slab I'd intended to get all along. With fries. I said whatever, fine, and dug in. Then she brought the check and it was still $5 off the usual price. Then I went up and paid and she shortchanged me $5.
I have no idea.

At team meeting this week I learned that on Monday night, a whole bunch of local police officers -- led by the sheriff I voted for in the last election -- staged a protest in the streets of Howell, Michigan, saying they won't enforce the two gun-safety laws the gubnor just signed with massive voter and legislative support. One is a "Red Flag" law to take firearms out of the hands of people threatening to kill themselves or someone else; the other requires safe gun storage so children can't treat guns as toys. Sheriff Murphy and his co-protestors feel the laws are unconstitutional. I heard they got out and displayed what someone called "the Trump float," which I never knew existed. Several co-workers saw this protest although I had already headed home for the evening.
Here's the head-scratcher: it didn't make the local or state news, even our local paper. At all. Now, is the Livingston Daily protecting the protestors...or silencing them?

Was driving home from a PO Box visit and there was a dude with an 18 pack of eggs, standing on the top guardrail over a bayou bridge, looking like he was about to heave eggs at passing traffic. I didn't actually see him sling any, but he was definitely threatening to. Weird, considering how expensive eggs are. Not weird considering this is Florida.

It seems strange to me that I'm just finding out about countries like: Andorra; Anguilla, Ascension; Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba; Comoros; Curacao; Eritrea; Faroe Islands; Kiribati; Montserrat; Nauru; Saint (St.) Kitts and Nevis; Sao Tome and Principe; Tristan da Cunha; Wallis and Futuna Islands at nearly 60 years old.
Seriously, as far as I can recall, I've never heard of any of the above ever being brought up in any media, be it news or fiction, that I've been exposed to. Granted, most of these are countries which our postal service will not even deliver to. So I'm assuming relatively small and/or uncivilized places.
This all came about while I was looking up country price groups information on Japan for a letter over an ounce, you see, and now my entire world view is shook. I figured I would have at least HEARD of every country in the world by now. I wonder if any of them are even members of the United Nations.
