Chopper Time was a good one this year as it was not overcrowded, nor overheated. Just Right!!!
There were plenty of beautiful Choppers & other antiques, both from the good ole local boys & from all over the Southeast coast. Many joined the “family” that day!
Jay Wright, I believe, won the top honors with his new Panhead. If he didn’t, it was worthy of such!
As usual, Boot Hill, Annie’s, Fox Head & Sorry Charlies were all rocking. I didn’t make it out to Pirate’s Pub this year. The hurricane sidelined us for awhile, even to the point of NO INTERNET, which means we can’t do the magazine, so we’re probably 5 to 7 days late or over my deadline. Remember Veterans Day, Thanksgiving & my “70” birthday. (I can’t believe this, WOW, 70!) Jays bike below, more next month on Chopper Time, BIG LOVE, Chris, Shiny, B & Me!!!
Drunks!!! Proverbs 20
By Cochise
1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink (beer) is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. 2 thereby is not wise.
2 The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling. 4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out. 6 Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find? 7 The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him. 8 A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes. 9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin? 10 Divers (various) weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD. 11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right. 12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
13 Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread. 14 It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth. 15 There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. 17 Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel. 18 Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war. 19 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
20 Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. 21 An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. 22 Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
23 Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good. Page 31

24 Man’s goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way? 25 It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
26 A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. 28 Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy. 29 The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head. 30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
Should I vote knowing the other side, the Democrats WILL cheat some way? Yes. Why?
God wants to know who you are voting for, abortion on demand, same sex marriage, hiding from their parents that are getting certain shots to change their gender, even girls having their breast removed and young boys being castrated, to euthanizing of old people, etc.
Why would He want to know that? Because he wants to know what’s in your hearts. Or as I said a couple of days ago:
As some men are identifying as girls. Women identifying as men. Children & adults identifying as animals, God wants to see your heart in this way, “What are you identifying as?”
Are you a Christian or just identifying as one???
Nikola Tesla’s prediction of a smartphone, Collier’s magazine interview, 1926:
“When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a real and rhythmic whole. We shall be able to communicate with one another instantly, irrespective of distance. Not only this, but through television and telephony we shall see and hear one another as perfectly as though we were face to face, despite intervening distances of thousands of miles; and the instruments through which we shall be able to do his will be amazingly simple compared with our present telephone.
A man will be able to carry one in his vest pocket.”

In 1987, during the Golden Gate Bridge’s 50th Anniversary celebration, an unprecedented crowd of over 300,000 people gathered, causing the bridge to flatten under their combined weight. This extraordinary moment turned the arching structure into a level path, blending excitement with awe as people experienced the strength and adaptability of the iconic bridge.

Leroy Robert “Satchel” Paige was born on July 7, 1906, in Mobile, Alabama. Though many speculate it may have been more like 1903. According to Paige, his mother sent him to earn money carrying luggage for businessmen at the train station, but he was frustrated with the little money it paid. So he rigged a pole to carry several bags at once to make the job pay better, and his co-workers purportedly told him, “You look like a walking satchel tree.” And his nickname stuck.
He was the first player who had played in the Negro leagues to pitch in the World Series, in 1948, and was the first electee of the Negro League Committee to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971.

I’m not sure on the year its licensed as, but it’s an 80 CI motor. There are many one off pieces that grab your attention immediately, like the top motor mount. Those double S’s stand for the Elite, so I personally believe he nailed it on selecting those as a one off, hand made piece. God job brother man, good job!!! Cochise

CORVALLIS, Ore. — In the Vietnam War, the second-largest contingent of soldiers fighting North Vietnam came from Korea. Now, 45 years later, roughly 40% of Korean Vietnam veterans have post-traumatic stress disorder, a rate higher than their American counterparts.
While PTSD is usually thought to stem from a single horrific experience, a new study from Oregon State University researcher Carolyn Aldwin and Korea Military Academy researchers Hyunyup Lee and Sungrok Kang found that fighting in an environment plagued by chronic stressors like heat, humidity and bugs greatly exacerbated
Korean Vietnam veterans’ PTSD later in life.
“In some ways, the malevolent environment may be a bigger risk factor for PTSD than the trauma itself, and that was very surprising to us,” said Aldwin, an OSU Public Health and Human Sciences researcher who has been studying the long-term effects of military combat for more than 25 years.
“I’m not certain that malevolent environments are traumatic in themselves” — though they can be, she said, as in the trenches of World War I — “but if you’re getting eaten by bugs and have sand in all your food, on top of everything else … It’s a stress that may exacerbate the general stressfulness of war.”
The implications of these results, published (Link is external) last week in the journal Psychological Trauma, stretch far beyond the military. Civilians living in crime-ridden neighborhoods or bombed-out villages can face similar mental health issues.
“In general, you could look at impoverished environments as perhaps also being malevolent, to the extent that people face physical toxins and also psychological toxins,” Aldwin said.
To conduct the study, the researchers sent a survey to veteran groups in South Korea in 2017. They were able to use data from 367 veterans, most of whom had served in combat-related positions and whose average age was 72.
The survey included questions about four unique war stressors: “Combat exposure” involved the number of times soldiers had been under enemy fire. “Malevolent environment” assessed harsh situations they faced on a day-to-day basis, such as annoying insects or heavy gear. “Perceived threat” referred to soldiers’ fear for their own safety. And “moral injury” gauged how soldiers felt their actions in war violated their own moral or ethical beliefs.
They also analyzed three “protective” factors continued in Dec Issue

Most people have no idea the hardships and pain you guys went through, constant tight gut feeling, the soreness of the body, the wet feet and clothes, leeches, constant fear, emotional drain, physical drain, putting on a brave face for your brothers when you wanted to cry.
Hungry, days with little or no sleep, bone weary. You will always be heroes to me.
You may not think you are, you really are. You did what others wouldn’t or couldn’t. You and your loved ones both suffered being apart and in constant fear of death or torture. You did what you had to do. You are heroes. If anyone disagrees with this or any of the pictures or sayings, call 1-800 Bite Me!!!

This is the route for the FREEDOM , “RIP” Rich & Chise’s 70th RIDE in November, so those mildly complaining about the short rides lately. Of course I keep it short because it’s just super hot to sit in the saddle all day.
So we’ll leave from the parking lot of A OK Guns in NSB at 9AM, heading South. We will not run any interstate roads. Trust me!!!
NOW, can you ride approx, 645 miles in 1 day? All 2 & 4 (small) lane roads, or would you rather ride 3 or 400 miles & finish it up the next day? It’s about 270 miles Hialeah from DB, then 130 miles to Naples, then approx. 260 miles, cross country to Daytona Beach!!! ARE YOU READY? Going to leave the Gun Shop on Saturday Nov. 23. On the way home follow me, & I’ll get you there. If you want to follow some one else, go for it.BTW, I’m to old to camp, so motel for me, somewhere On Tamiami Trail or near!!! Share a room or tent and Let’s Just Ride & follow our hearts!!! FREEDOM RIDE FOREVER!!!
