Folk's, Want to take a moment to Recognize & Express Our Appreciation to Firebird Nation Member "Bob"

Seems very fitting to Appreciate our Founding Father of FBN at the very start of the New Year with the Man who started Firebird Nation!


Bob's first post was August 14/2004 and was the most important post of the site, FBN was born.

In Bob's own word's from his profile this show's his intention and dedication to the site we enjoy and love every day.

"I started FBN when I noticed a void in Firebird only forums. It seemed the majority of forums were geared towards Camaros, so FBN was born. In addition, I envisioned a forum which was member centered and in which all new members were warmly welcomed. I also hated the flaming which took place on other forums, so we decided early on to try and curb any flaming which may take place. In addition, we strive to allow freedom of speech from all sides and to allow honest and intelligent debate. Of course this can be a tough feat to accomplish, but we do the best with what we can, and I hope you all enjoy the atmosphere here, after all it is our forum since it wouldn't exist without the members.

Here at FBN, we value the members as we know that its the members who make FBN what it is. We have been very fortunate to have the best members on the internet."


To write everything positive and worthy of Bob would most likely take 10 plus servers all running at top speed and could likely crash the internet!

An Amazing Man and an Amazing Friend to all member's of FBN and to his Wife and three Daughter's, Bob please accept this vote and always know how Very Much You are Appreciated!

Our Vote for Member of January 2010--------Bob!

Thank you Pete, but I don't really deserve this attention.
BULL! Without you, there would be no firebirdNation.com. Heck, you and RamAirThree (Lou) are the main reasons I am here. Because I know what "other board" your post refers to! This site and BOB rule!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

'Les grandes pensées viennent du coeur' This simple quotation refers to a simple phrase I learned from the writings of Vauvenargues. It's meaning is, 'The greatest thoughts come from the heart'. You deserve it buddy, you might as well role with it!

Yes thank you bob without you FBN would not be around. Also you know how to keep a website up and running and always have the best information posted on the site.
Lets put it this way. Person who started the NFL, Person who started NCAA football, Person who started NBA, Person who started ESPN, Bob. And that list isnt in any particular order. Even though i only joined in July, it only took me like 2 days to come to the conclusion Bob was one of the most important members and one of the most helpful members. Kudos to you buddy.

And am proud to call you my friend.
