    Just read thru Pat’s latest blog, which was his take on the long list of magazine titles recently lost. Along with changes in the digital world, he points out that without support from the masses, most things fade away - even him!

    The strong intimation (if not outright statement) was that without subscribers defining its worth, he would not put the considerable time and effort into producing his blog. And I don’t think I’m the only one that would consider that a tragedy.

    So, consider this the firing of the warning flare! Love him, hate him, agree or disagree with him, he is a valuable historian and essayist for the traditional Rod & Custom hobby we all love.

    We need a HAMB subscription drive. Sign up, show your support, and let Pat know he’s not wasting his time.

    (Ok, soap box closed)

    I have subscribed since the beginning. Pat, Like many others that have been around awhile, has an opinion on many of the aspects of our hobby based on his experiences. He tells like it is, agree or disagree, after all, it is his opinion. Sign Up Now!

    Have you ever had a hero that you hated?
    Meaning I was jealous of his work because I wanted to do it also, but he was much better than I could ever be.
    For me that was Pat,,, he always seemed to have the right 'big' words and he could take pictures.
    Ever time I ran into to him at shows I would say hello, like about 5,000 others, but I was just a free-lancer and he was 'Staff'.
    I just subscribed to his blog to show support,,, for a hero of mine.

    It's even simpler: just go to www.PatGanahl.com and you should get 40+ lead photos with headings for each column. Click on it to see that column. Under the heading click on SUBCSRIBE to to so. All it takes is your email address. If you have any problem subscribing, email [email protected] for assistance.
    And Thanks!
    Pat G.
