    It's because you run a top notch site and do it in a way that is very elegant and respectful. All the while still somehow allowing for a bunch of crazy non-conformist to participate and keep it reasonably under control. Not an easy feat, but you do it with grace and positive example. Well done and you deserve it. Hope to meet you in person some day to say thanks in person. But here's and virtual thanks in the meantime.

    One small request though - baby or kids shirts? I have a 15 month old son that would look fantastic in one of those winged shirts.

    Hey Ryan,
    It's cool for us to be exclusive...what do you mean "support?"
    Thanks for providing us with a killer forum to exchange ideas and stuff.

    I'd bet the magazine guys hate ya for stealing their crowd?
    Haa haa,you get an "Attaboy!"

    I appreciate it here, and appreciate all the help and comments - both good and bad - that I find when I ask for help.

    Sharing is what its all about, and this is a great place to do just that. Thanks for making it all possible.

    We should be thanking you for the countless hours of work that have been avoided while we are logged onto the HAMB. Thanks for putting together such a great place to check out the things we love. Great work on the shirts by the way. Top Notch!!!

    Just wanted to say thanks for having a website that works smoothly for international orders !

    I wish some other parts suppliers web sites took the trouble to get that side of their business right.

    Ryan man!
    I seen the pic of all the swag in the back of the blazer there, and thought maybe you had changed vocations and where starting to sell the "powder" off of the donuts! :eek: Like everyone else has said before me, you have created something great here and with the Jockey Journal and Garage Journal. Brother, it just keeps getting better. Don't stop, and don't change. This ride is running straight and true and has a full head of steam! You have plenty to be greatful for here. Good friends, good advice, good times, good brotherhood. Man, what else could you want? (besides a million bucks tax-free with no questions asked!!!!)

    Ryan.....you have done very well around the world and not many can say that. You have brought a Hot Rod community together in a way that no one has since the great Robert Peterson has in his early days and believe me, your journey has only just begun. Thank you, Skip

    Thank you Ryan! I've said it before, I'll say it again. This is the best freakin' place on line!

    Gotta love it. Two cool hot rods and a garage full of HAMB swag.

    Those timid soles who never take risks, stick their necks out, try the impossible, will never know the absolute rush of succeeding where failure loomed. You sir deserve all the success you get because you earned it by not being a lemming and following the status quo.

    Just glad you let me hang around.

  22. Ditto, we live in a new era of media & publishing, and while some things stay the same, we are constantly needing to remind ourselves to 'explore the boundaries, test our faith, and walk the road less travelled....'

    Your t-shirt experience highlights that, and similarly, the HAMB is your avenue, just on a much larger scale.....Rock on, reach out and travel that unmapped path, fear not, cause we're all here with you....

    Cheers,

    Drewfus:)

    When you placed your first order did you have any idea how many people's lives your actions affected. Thank you for the direction in my automotive life, and a bigger thanks for the many freindships made.

    And it must be contagious, Mrs jalopy ( my wife ) is talking about going to the HAMB drags with me this year.

    Ryan,

    I keep getting a reminder that I haven't posted in a while, so I'll take this opportunity to thank you for everything you do for us.

    I'll be watching for the mailman to deliver my stuff. I now know why you don't have sales too often............TONS of work!

    I can't remember how I found the H.A.M.B., but it has provided countless hours of enjoyment. I don't know what I'd do without it, other than get caught up on my magazines.

    Thanks again....................Woody

    Ryan,

    As already said, thank you. I have learn much and made great friends through the HAMB.

    As for the swag? Of all the automobile merchandise on the market, JJ/HAMB gear is always high quality and people are passionate about it. That is a perfect combo for a product.

    You did it all...you developed a brand, and a damn good one at that. You have stayed true to the vision and that has paid dividends.

    Nice job!
