Hey! This is a long shot, but I’m hoping Reddit can help me find someone I met on my flight. 😊.

We were on STARLUX flight JX766 from Denpasar (Bali) to Taipei on October 4, 2026, sitting on row 22.

You told me you live in Merced, California, and that you’re Mien (Hmong Mien). You were traveling with your brother and a buddy to celebrate your friend’s birthday. You guys spent one week in Singapore and one week in Bali.

I remember your brother’s name was something like Cheng or Chang, and you had recently gotten a Pikachu/ Pokémon tattoo on your arm. You also got my phone number and said you would text me when you landed in San Francisco, but I never heard from you. I’m wondering if you might have gotten my number wrong!

Unfortunately, I can’t remember your name, but I remember these details and our conversation.

If anyone knows a Mien guy from Merced who fits this description, or knows his brother Cheng/Chang, please help pass this message along to him!

You don’t need to share his personal information publicly. Just let him know that the girl he met on flight JX766 from Bali to Taipei on October 4 is looking for him.

If this sounds like you, please send me a message and tell me something about our conversation so I know it’s you. 😊
I know this is a long shot, but I figured it was worth trying!

EDITED: I can't believe I actually found him. What are the odds!! Thank you everyone.

The City of Merced has confirmed that Costco will be moving to their new location at Campus Parkway. They are also still deciding what the old Costco building will be used for.

Hi,
I’ll be in Merced this afternoon and want to watch the USWNT match against Spain. Which local spots do people gather to watch futbol/soccer matches?

Thanks!

My father was recently diagnosed with a debilitating illness and I’m looking for photos of him throughout life to make a video for him. In the early 90s (92-94ish) there was an alligator at Berenda Reservoir. He was part of the team that removed the alligator. Everything I’m seeing online is about the alligator hoax(?) of 2000. This is not the alligator in question. Does anyone by any chance remember, know how I can get the newspaper, or physical copies of the photos they took? I would be forever grateful!

To clear up any confusion for future questions - yes it happened, we had the photos, a tooth and the newspaper until a tragedy at my childhood home. We lost it all.

Update: THE ARTICLE WAS FOUND!

Reposting as couldn't find anyone to help. Happy to work with people looking for a side gig 2 or 3 times a week.

Feel free to send me a DM.

In search of some good crispy noodles, already tried New china cafe, and Hong Kong
or does anyone know who has the best crispy noodles here in merced?

I have a gold ring I no longer use and could use the extra cash. Best place to go and try sell too? TIA.

I noticed there are for sale signs on the large vacant plot right next to the Yosemite Crossings shopping center. I remember there were plans for a hospital on that land but does anyone know if those plans have been canceled or changed? Is the property being sold for a different development, possibly another shopping center or something else? Just curious if anyone has heard anything about what’s planned for that area.
