Welfare check: Boriqua

#1

Post by smithers599 »

Last post May 2023. Up to then he had been posting almost daily.
Is he OK? Anybody know what's going on with him?

I was also wondering. PM'd him a couple of times with no response.

Found him. He's alive and kicking. Out of the holster business, and disillusioned with what he considered the often poor quality of discourse on AZS, so he just dropped out. But he's fine.

I've found that in general, idiots think that, and I can't imagine you're the exception. :mrgreen:

Because it is 100% accurate, that's why...

Even down to Rex Kwan Do's vehicle. Instead of a Subaru Brat, it is a Honda Ridgeline

The good news is Boriqua is in good health. I had been trying to connect with him about a holster, and was getting no reply. Turns out it's just because he stopped using the email that he had been using for holster business. I was worried that he had stroked out or something. He's fine, and I'm glad of it.

So, you didn't prove me wrong about being an exception, good to know.
