Scandal-ridden missionaries
Just as I finished up the last post about questionable missionary activities, I got an email from an old mission friend telling me about some elder that applied for unemployment while he was serving a mission. And he got it. Unfortunately the wheels of government, while slow, do turn eventually, and when they found out, they wanted all their money back! Actually, it was a pretty good idea, as there was no traceable employment or means of support for the missionaries in regards to tax records or anything. Talk about a way to supplement funds to... uh, spread the gospel... yeah, that's why he was doing it... I'm sure of it...

Remember when we used to have to register in each city? Well, since I was in Kristansand forever, and then we didn't have to register anymore. I had Kristiansand hounding me for taxes a year or so after I got home.
I think I finally had to call them and tell them I was an american citizen and when I had returned to the states.
Yes, wheels of government....
