The value of this website just keeps going up and up!

Of course.

I may make a brief appearance. It will be good for everyone to see me.

Thanks guys. It's nice to get such a warm welcome back. Thanks for all the positive comments. It's nice to be home again.

Great Spotlight Phil. The thing is with Phil, he puts a lot of thought into his collection and he is very long on knowledge for the product, the technology, and Oakley in general. It was great to meet Phil personally and converse with a true expert in this hobby. He grabbed my ass, but that's okay. I've been groped by worse! Seriously, great collection Phil and I look forward to meeting up with you again at some point.

Inspirational Spotlight Fred. I think you could have included more pics of your hair from the 80's but apart from that - perfect! Enjoy your month in the sun!

Jose is the real deal y'all. His collection is killer, his passion for shoes is apparent, and his love of family is loud and clear. If you know more people like Jose, sign them up! Great read, great collection - congrats man.

I remember Bill from when he was just a young pup, single, footloose and fancy free. He would whip around the East Coast in his little Subaru STi, but he has grown up into a fine young man. He has himself a charming fiance and his collection is top notch. He is a great contributor to this site as a whole. He is always there to give you his input, and he would go out of his way for a member without a moment of hesitation. When Dann and I first decided to add the Spotlight section to the O-Review we knew Bill would be a great collector to start with. Congrats Bill. Here's too many more years of Oakley madness!

Like Dann said, Lee is a consumate collector. He is incredibly discerning in his additions and he is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to Oakley's, both past and current. His collection is proof that he appreciates Oakley's uniqueness. You can be sure you have never met a more meticulous caregiver of Oakley products. I know for a fact he goes to great lengths to maintain the pristine condition of his collection. I have appreciated getting to know Lee and I have learned a lot from him over the years. I have mostly learned that his collection is museum-worthy and I am glad we all had the chance to learn more about him through this month's Collector's Spotlight. Cheers my friend.

What can I say about Bong? Well, for startes he "ain't wrong"! Bong has amassed what has to be the most amazing collection of Wires and Watches the free world has ever seen. His passion for Oakley products runs deep. I am glad he is able to thrust his collection into the Spotlight this month, because he is a great ambassador for Oakley, as well as The Oakley Review. I enjoyed the photos and responses in your Spotlight Bong and I look forward to seeing you add to this incredible collection over the coming years.

In addition to the stellar collection these two have built up, I have got to say that Yukio and Dawn are some of the most entertaining and humorous members we have ever seen here at the O-Review. Their responses to the Spotlight survey are proof to this fact. I often wonder what would become of myself if my wife were as passionated as I am about Oakley, but D&Y are living proof that double the passion truly is double the fun. I have always been impressed with the thought and care they put into the presentation of their collection and likewise, I have always appreciated the way they add to the overall good mood of the site. Mahalo Whores!

It is great to see Mike in the Spotlight. At times a collection is judged on its size, and Mike is proof that size is not the overriding factor when admiring a collection. I happen to know that Mike has put a huge amount of effort and time into building his collection and I can appreciate the calculated choices he has made over the years. His presentation of his collection is unsurpassed and the care and attention he gives to the maintenance of his collection is evident from the pictures of his "Oakley Office". Thanks for sharing Mike, and all the best to you and Ainslie.

Lex is the proprietor of one the most immense collections we have ever seen here at the O-Review. He has completed quite a few model lines which is testimony to have far this boy is willing to go in his pursuit of Oakley greatness. It was great to see the Spotlight shone on Lex, and I hope everyone takes a minute to really peruse his collection because he has many truly remarkable pieces that will shock and awe you! Congrats Lex.

He needs to add some watches to his collection though! :)

If you are ever in an Oakley retailer and you wonder if that "other dude" dressed head to toe in Oakley is a fellow O-Reviewer, you subtly say "Dann's the Man". If he is a fellow O-Reviewer he will respond "Bong Ain't Wrong". It is our code so to speak. But, it is also a tribute to the man that brought us all together from all corners of the world. Dann started the OR website back when he had a pretty modest collection but he is now in the Oakley stratosphere. I appreciate the "vintageness" of Dann's collection. His collection is tantamount to taking an Oakley tour through the ages. He is worthy of his "The Man" status and he has been an inspiration to Oakley collectors around the world. And, he has a long beard. Very long.

It's obvious from Tick's photos in this month's Spotlight that he has a wicked collection, but what may not be evident is the fact that he has a sense of humor that some may actually believe is semi-entertaining. Personally, I have never seen Tick joke around, but maybe that's just me. Haha! Seriously, we are very lucky to have a guy like Tick around who combines a wealth of Oakley passion with immense knowledge, a razor sharp wit, and a hilarious sense of humor. I enjoyed reading Tick's Spotlight as I am sure everyone did and I am looking forward to more interactions with Tick on the forums as well as watching his collection grow.

Paul is one of the nicest guys I have ever met and I am glad to see him in the Spotlight for this month. I must say, he is way too humble when it comes to his collection. He claims to be a "lesser collector", but I don't know how he can justify that since his collection is loaded with amazing pieces, and his display is beyond reproach. I thoroughly enjoyed your survey responses Oogie as well as all your family pics. You have a great sense of humor and you are a true asset to the OR community.

His living room is decked out like an O-Store people! Congrats on the great Spotlight Paul. Take good care of that fiance of yours, she is way hotter than you deserve!

Simply gorgeous collection. You can tell a lot of time, love, and passion has gone into it. It doesn't surprise me that people are blown away by the photos you have selected. It is a sight to behold. Congrats my friend.

BMCAPS send his regards as well.

If I could offer you just one piece of advice it would be to beef up your Artist Series collection. It's looking a little scant.

Your passion for the "O" comes through loud and clear through your Spotlight Mark. You do epitomize the Oakley lifestyle to the utmost. Congrats on a great collection and an even greater family.

What a great Spotlight! I really appreciated the advice you offered to new collectors. Congrats Ken.

You are a real asset to the Oakley collecting community, Jamie. Your collection is beyond reproach and I really appreciated your candid and thoughtful comments. You're a true class act.
