In the fall of 1969 my friend Chris and I decided to open a retail store selling "Chopper parts". We had built and sold 4 custom bikes that year www.flickr.com/photos/45519093@N00/124039311/in/set-1385107 and all our friends were asking how to buy the parts mail order. Ed Roth published "Choppers" magazine which contained ads including one for AEE Choppers of southern California. We had purchased parts from them for my first panhead chopper that same year. Deciding on the name " CJ custom cycle parts" we made a business plan and went to the bank for a start up loan. To say the bankers laughed at us would be exaggeration but they declined our request. I complained of their shortsightedness to my co-workers at the newspaper and Fran Walling, a fellow artist in the display advertising department, offered to loan me the money from part of her husbands life insurance settlement. We agreed to pay her 1% more than bank rate on a two year repayment plan. And so with $5,000 in the bank we rented a small store front and made plans for a January 1970 opening.

 

The plan was for Chris to man the retail store on the weekdays while I worked full time at the newspaper, then on Saturdays I would be behind the counter. We really had no clue how the profit margin of a retail parts business should have worked, both of us had only high school educations and in 1969 I was 23, married with an infant daughter and Chris was 19 and two years out of school. To say we were more lucky than smart is an understatement. Further complicating our business plan was the fact that AEE Choppers was both underfunded and had no desire or incentive to sell on the traditional manufacturer/distributor/retailer automotive model. Read the true and remarkable story of Tom and Rose McMullen's business here: www.streetchopperweb.com/features/0910_stcp_street_choppe... Nevertheless, we travelled to socal in a borrowed truck and purchased parts from AEE and several other manufacturers who had placed ads in Ed Roth's magazine. Keep in mind there were no other magazines publishing in 1969, Street Chopper appeared in March 1970 and Easyriders first issue came out in 1971. We opened our chopper shop for business January 10,1970. Harley-Davidson dealers were not interested in modifying motorcycles or the people who were, if you couldn't make your own parts you rode a stock bike.

 

Chris had learned to lace and true wheels as part of his training at the HD dealership in his two years working there after graduating high school. He was the first in our area to make spokes to adapt a 16 inch HD rim to a Triumph rear hub and had a small business in his garage building wheels for our mutual friends. I had started painting bikes in my garage in 1968. Combining our two skill sets we expected to gain the benefit of making a profit on the parts our fellow riders and friends needed to customize their motorcycles. We soon learned there was not enough profit selling AEE parts so we searched for other sources. Fortunately for us there were plenty of people eager to accommodate us and in the end AEE went out of business in 1975.

Victoria Sponge Cake - Decorated with a jungle theme, animal designs I got from Sweet Little Cakes of Surrey.

A mid century modern German porcelain platter in with pink and gray leaves that is just oozing 1950s cool. This pattern, Spring Theme, was manufactured by Eschenbach in Bavaria, Germany.

A birthday cake that I made for a 11 year old who loves horses. The little horse heads were supposed to go on top of cupcakes, but I thought they look better on the cake instead.

The tennis net reflected in a puddle can be seen as horizontal, like the puddle or as vertical, like the tennis net in reality. I add this image to the theme truth versus illusion (or real versus virtual), which is a sub theme of opposites since vertical and horizontal are opposites. It also belongs to the subject of reflections, but reflections are always an illusion that relates to reality.

רשת טניס שמשתקפת בשלולית

=

את רשת הטניס שמשתקפת בשלולית אפשר לראות כמאוזנת, כמו השלולית, או כמאונכת, כמו רשת הטניס שבמציאות. תמונה זו שייכת אצלי לנושא של אמת ואשליה או מציאות מול וירטואליות, שהוא תת נושא של ניגודים, כי מאוזן ומאונך הם ניגודים. היא גם שייכת לנושא של השתקפויות, אבל השתקפויות הן תמיד אשלייה שמתייחסת למציאות

Please be aware... I am no stamp expert. Posted titles are either what I was told or from a quick Google search. No claim is made of all being accurate, I do make an effort to be as factual as possible when posting. Some duplication of type or variety may occur. I try not to double post items. My feeble brain may slip on that from time to time. Very little actual value exists in most (if not all) of them.

 

This theme will be all pink pink,My only critique for this theme will be to dress in pink, the rest is for your imagination , I want to see style , uniqueness and flair . Due next Thursday :) good luck ladies . Ps -You are allowed to edit your photos :)

We had a Rock Band party at our place as we celebrated the first day of summer. Appropriately, the theme was tropical, featuring a sand covered balcony for the barbeque, a pina colada machine, and lots of Jello shots.

Love is a Blue Gummy Bear!

 

A grandson gave me a bag of 'hand picked' candy for my birthday!

He knew I liked, WATERMELON, DOGS & the color BLUE and he quickly added, "and you call me Bear!"

Week 11's theme is - BLUE

From : Catcher In My Eye :)

 

Oh look, shorts, blazer and booties again for another perfect fall day.

I'm worried there might not be too many more, so it's important to wear my shorts and blazers as much as I can.

And the red blazer is preppy no more. Now it's kinda punk. I like to think it is anyway. My sister thinks the look is "train conductor".

Shorts - Made by Me

Hat - Khols

Scarf - Avon

Nightmare Before Christmas themed decorations on either side of the stage.

 

I just saw The Nightmare Before Christmas 4D, the 20th Anniversary Release of the movie, at its exclusive run at the El Capitan Theatre, in Hollywood, California. It was the matinee showing at 2:30 pm on Sunday, October 20, 2013.

 

I parked my car in the Hollywood and Highland Center, home of the Dolby Theatre, and walked across Hollywood Blvd to the El Capitan. I arrived at the theatre at 1:30 pm. Even though I had a reserved seat for the movie, I had to wait in line outside the theatre to before we could be let in, at about 2 pm. While we were waiting, a CM checked for tickets and gave us 3D glasses.

 

I happened to be standing right over the Tinker Bell star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And in the doorway of the Disney Soda Fountain and Studio Store is a star for Disneyland, added in 2005 on its 50th anniversary. The Disney Soda Fountain is closed right now. It will re-open in November 15 as the Ghirardelli® Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop, as a large poster in the window of the shop announces.

 

I got my popcorn and soda, and took my seat. On stage playing organ was the theatre's long time organist Rob Richards, appropriately dressed in a black robe. In addition to playing Disney tunes, he played music from the Phantom of the Opera. The theatre was decorated in a Nightmare Before Christmas theme. The special effects were lights, pyrotechnics, audience participation cues onscreen, fog and ''snow''. The audience had a large percentage of children, but they were all very well behaved, and seemed to enjoy the movie very much. It was the first time for me seeing Nightmare on the big screen, and it was great seeing Jack, Sally, Oogie Boogie and the rest of the cast larger than life. The 3D made the characters appear very life-like, as if we were actually seeing them in front us for real. Of course, the fact that they were actual puppets animated through stop motion photography helped a great deal in the realism as well.

 

After the movie we got to see a special exhibit of the making of the movie, featuring photos and replicas of storyboards and sets from the movie. They also had the actual sets for Town Hall and the Spiral Mountain. All of it was behind glass, so you couldn't touch and feel the sets. On the way out, I took photos of some of the movie posters, and a display on the history of the theatre. On the way back to my car, I took photos of some other stars on the Walk of Fame, mainly related to Disney movies.

 

This theme park has it roots in Chessington Zoo, which opened in 1931; it was started by Reginald Goddard, who had bought the estate to showcase his private collection of animals. In 1946 when Mr Goddard died, the Pearson Publishing Company took over the zoo and managed it until 1978, when the Tussaud Group took control of the park (Tussauds was a subsidiary of the Pearson Group). In 1984, due to the zoo's declining attendance, Tussauds´s Director of Development, Ray Barratt commissioned John Wardley to come up with plans to revitalise the park, and the decision was made to open an amusement park to complement the zoo, and so Chessington World of Adventures was born. The park opened with a new monorail, a powered coaster, log flume and a dark ride (all supplied by the German ride manufacturer Heinrich Mack GmbH & Co). The new rides were to operate on a pay-one-price admission basis, and replace the existing pay-as-you-go fairground rides. The monorail, named the Safari Skyway, opened early in 1986 to give the visitors a foretaste of the new attraction. "Chessington World of Adventures" opened as a theme park in 1987. The attractions were all heavily themed with emphasis on atmosphere and effects, meaning Chessington was one of the first true theme parks in Britain.

On 22 May 2007, The Tussauds Group was taken over by Merlin Entertainments Ltd, which owns other brands, including the Sealife Centre, and The Dungeons. This meant that Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and Madame Tussauds were also taken over as well. As a result of this purchase Merlin became the second largest entertainments operator in the world, ahead of Parques Reunidos and second only to Disney.

The park has a large selection of attractions. It also has over 1,000 animals, many of which can be seen from the Safari Skyway, an elevated monorail around the Zoo. Chessington has been in the same ownership as nearby Thorpe Park since 1998, and since 2007, Legoland Windsor.[1] Since Chessington World of Adventures and Thorpe Park are located within 20 miles of each other, its owner Merlin has made efforts to market the two parks to different age groups: Chessington World of Adventures is meant to appeal to children while Thorpe Park strives to thrill older thrillseekers.
