O Bendable, Bendable, wherefore art thou Bendable?
Where you be at bro?
You OK?
BIDEN SUCKS.
If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Funny you should mention that, I was just thinking about it today.
February 6, 2021, Mr. 'Bellum asked Mr. Bendable to back off a bit on being helpful to the administration.
bendable replied "Done," and has not posted anything since.

He had gotten into the habit of being real net-coppy. Annoyingly so.

Got called on it, and rather than take the hint, he apparently left.

I dunno... Maybe I've got a soft spot for bendable.
I don't think he was necessarily being intentionally abrasive, hall monitor/mall cop "respect my authoritah"-style.
Rather, I think he's just a gentle, simple soul. (I mean that in a non-derogatory way. Think "old guy in a small town" simple/uncomplicated, not "rides the short bus" simple.)
He wants to help, and he thought he was helping. But he probably did get his feelings hurt a bit when he was mildly chastised, since he probably read too much into it due to his nature.

He was probably taken out by a cantaloupe. I warned him.

I agree with this. I think he is indeed a gentle and kind soul.

I think last month someone said they had email contact w/ him and he was doing fine, if I remember correctly? He's the funniest gentleman on the forum. Always has me chuckling.

I felt that recently people have been really harsh to bendable.
I'm glad you're still around, sir!

At least you could let us know how things look from your front porch as you blissfully slowly move back and forth in your cherished and well worn rocking chair.

It's been a while since we have heard the news from Lake Woebegone.
