I haven't noticed any posts from him in a while. Last time I can find that he posted was July 11, 2024.

I hope the old curmudgeon is ok.

Five years ago, rburg said "I don't really expect to live all that much longer."

Some time before that, he flatly stated that he was really old. He had some memory problems which manifested in the forum with him posting things, and then posting them again a while later, with no recollection of having posted them previously. Not too long ago, I heard he was in bad health. Draw your own conclusions.

We can't live forever and it sounds like Dick has had a very long life.

I’ve been missing his posts as well. Sometimes I don’t get enough curmudgeonry from the old goats at breakfast.

Dick has been mia at National Gun Day gunshows for a couple years now and he is missed. He is a walking encyclopedia of S&W knowledge and has a knack for storytelling, i.e., the first liar doesn't stand a chance. Wink

As an aside, checkout the two teasers I posted in that thread I linked to, for the reality show I proposed: Next Door Dick. I had forgotten about that. You have to admit, that's pretty funny. Big Grin

I saw those. There's money to be made there.
