Anybody know what's up with Mel?

Noticed Mel (Here Comes Mongo) has been MIA since November.  He has also been unsubscribed from that "other" forum.

Hoping he is OK.  I know he bailed and sold everything a few years ago, but that was a more public thing.

    He seems fine and is very active on Facebook. I don't speak for him, but my guess is he would rather talk to thousands of people rather than dozens.

    How about a similar topic on Lawrence (Hondo)?

    Thought Hondo was given a 'vacation' over the holidays.

    Last dozen or so posts in this thread

    I see he has been re-instated, but isn't posting much now.

    I've seen Mel active quite a bit on FB as well. He posts every day, if not a few times a day. 

    Yes, Lawrence was given a "vacation" over the holidays, but has not as of yet, posted.

    He was given an involuntary week off.  I imagine his pride took a hit; either that or he is busy setting up his new forum. He was actually reinstated a few hours before his 7 days were up.

    This post will will make him feel better, I’m sure. That he is missed. We didn’t want him to go or stop posting; just realize the forum doesn’t revolve around him.
