    How did this name come into being? Is it an acronym for something else? And, how long has it been in existence? Thanks in advance...

    I seem to recall a post Ryan did about starting the Hamb back when he was in College. HRP

    I read that it just started as the jalopy journal. Folks started h***ling Ryan to open up a forum, or message board, he eventually did and announced "here is your hokey *** message board" and the name stuck. Unintentionally.I was knee high to a gl*** pack then and don't know for sure, just read it somewhere...
