Hi folks,

I haven’t really been on here much in recent years but I was wondering if Bmalion is still an active member and, if not, how he is keeping? He hosted me and others in his home in Cleveland and always made me feel extremely welcome Stateside. I feel bad that I fell out of touch but hopefully he’s doing OK.

Thanks.  
An Gadaí

I’m afraid I don’t know them personally and therefore can’t give you an update, but they last posted almost 3 years ago. Here’s hoping someone who knows more comes along shortly

I’m going to tag them (@Bmalion) in case that triggers an email or something and prompts them to get back you.

Unless I’m mistaken, I seem to remember that he died a few years ago. Someone please verify this.

Very relieved that I was wrong. Welcome back to the living, **BMalion**!

Glad to see that!

The world could use some great hosts and I hear that you are one of them. 🙂

@An_Gadai, it’s all you now.

This wording makes me think of the “First, make sure that he’s actually dead.” joke.

Is this one of those “My post is my cite” situations?

I saw **BMalion** with my own eyes as recently as June 28 and can now confirm that he was, in fact, at least at that time, really most sincerely _not_ dead.

Says you! How do we know you’re not a zombie, or one a them poultry ghosts?
