"Use repetition to create an interesting photograph today. Grids, patterns, or a series of lines will all do the trick."
Yes. I'm being snarky. The image has repetition of a subject that is often repeated with yet another repeated theme. So I have a challenge for everyone here: send in one suggestion for a dailyshoot theme. If everyone sends in one, we'll have a whole batch of lovely new themes over the next bit. Please. I'm begging you! Send your suggestion to: dailyshoot.com/suggestions/new

Live, Believe & Dream! See You There!
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.
This photograph of Julie, our theme girl, wearing our logo t-shirt was taken on January 10,1974 by John Reddick. Exactly four years to the day after we had opened our first store and at the height of our business success. Scanned from a 35 year old 35mm negative.
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.
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.

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

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.

What do I crave? What can't I resist? Stories. I can't resist a good story. I read, listen, watch, play and occasionally write stories.
People tell stories. We tell stories to entertain, to share our lives, to learn how to live, to see ourselves in the world, to see the way the world could be, to imagine the heroes that could be, to keep the dark away...and I'm a sucker for stories in all shapes and forms.

This is an updated version of my previous upload of the same name
I just went browsing for some cool new wallpapers and found that black/white abstract pictures go really well with this theme so I figured I'd upload my desktop's 1.1 version of this theme (should probably figure out how to make a working installer file :P)
- The picture I used for the updated screenshot
- Another cool B/W abstract dye wallpaper and here's another one of the same kind but maybe a little less solid
These are the skins I've used for the theme:
Enigma [included with Rainmeter]:
- Launcher (under Taskbar) [tweaked via the "Enigma\Options" skin]
- Music (under Taskbar)
Macro Love's Obsidian skins:
- Drive
- Calender
- Clock
- Taskbar (under TextItems\Topbar\BG) [and this one has been tweaked to not fill the entire screen = "Edit skin", bottom part "h" = 80 and "w" = 1100 for my 1080p resolution]
- Wireless signal indicator (under Topbar\Addons)
- Weather (under Topbar\Addons)
- RAM (under Topbar\Addons)
- CPU (under Topbar\Addons)
- Recycle Bin (under Topbar\Addons)
- PowerButtons (under TextItems\Extra\PowerButtons)
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!"
Love it! Love him!

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".
Blazer - United colors of benetton
Shorts - Made by Me
