    I was thinking the other day what would happen if they blocked the HAMB at work... I wouldn't know what to do!!!! I think I would go insane.... or maybe I would actually get some work done.... NO, I would go insane!!!

    Yeah, the HAMB comes up in every conversation for me as well! People at work think there is something wrong with me...

    The good news is there is HOPE for us...
    One of these chicks called me last night, so that means I can screw it up by having more time to talk about the HAMB the second time around when I go have a drink with her! :D

    SICK! JUST SICK! :eek:

    The HAMB is a drug! Would this make Ryan the dealer or a doctor? Pharmacist maybe??

    You guys ever get the feeling that talking hotrods to your wife, people at work, random non hambers is recieved but deep down these same random people give you a look like what was heard is never appreciated, kinda like shut up already?

    Well the HAMB and the local gatherings thru the HAMB, and of course car shows are the only places I do not have to worry about that. It is very refreshing knowing that hotrod talk is very well recieved and appreciated. hence addicting.

    It does'nt help that the for sale area has got good stuff I need as well.

    Love this place.. definately cant live without.

    Did you ever notice yourself "selling" the HAMB to other car people with the same era interests? Do you ever do this and then actually go crazy telling them about it when they HAVEN'T heard of it? Then they look at you with this expression like "I won't check it out and say I will" so then you start talking it up EVEN MORE??!!

    Freaks I tell ya'!!

  10. I'm retired, and am only doing two things, building a traditional 32 Ford Roadster as a retirement project, and logging onto the HAMB. Retirement is great and I don't feel guilty at all.

    When you start a conversation: "This guy on the HAMB has a..." And realize the person you are talking to has no idea WTF you are saying.

    My kids know what the HAMB is and I hear them talking to their friends about the Hokey **** Message Board with the other word for **** (giggle, giggle). They have met as many folks here as I have face to face because they go nearly everywhere I go. Hell, I'm thinking hard about selling my 54 Chevy 4 door so we can spend more time working on their projects.

    Hooked on HAMB, at work right now (3rd check today), and Jonesin' for a PM to make sure I didn't fall off the face of the earth or something...

    I'm bummed I haven't purchased a laptop yet.:( I'm leaving in the morning for a long weekend of shopping in Chicago with some girlfriends, who by the way I have neglected all spring and summer because of car events. I don't leave for 24 hours but I'm already going into withdrawls at just the thought of being HAMBless for 3 days. I sure hope the hotel has a "business center" or something so I can check in every so often.:eek:

    I'm sure, almost sure, Ryan would have or could obtain a list of who averages the most time spent logged into the HAMB.:D Would be a hoot to see.:cool:

  19. Im on hamb sometime every day, dont post much but read almost everything!
    I feel that hamb cost me time but saves me money when i´m working on the cars, its a good thing, couse i have more time then money!

    Another site im on have a feature that alows you to lock yourself out for 1-12 hours, so you can get things done, it´s a good idea but i think i would be too stupid to use it!
