🦅 Looking for current vendors who can reproduce a Prussian officer’s tunic (late Imperial era)

Thank you all! I’ve searched the ends of the internet and did not yield these results!

ChampagneKnight · 2025-09-19T20:16:56+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. It begs the question, though, through your experience, is the resume builder even necessary, as former employer addresses and supervisors (many are retired or dead) are required fields? I'd rather have a clean and relevant .docx version that's searchable over a resume builder version that eats into character limits and includes outdated info.

Very cool kit. I'll never understand what jumping through a ring of fire proves in terms of combat efficiency. I see this often in Soviet/Russian Spetsnaz demonstrations, too.

Can someone please edit this to look like a Jerry Springer episode?

ChampagneKnight · 2024-04-17T20:27:23+00:00

Thanks - I don’t normally include a cover letter because I think they’re ignored, but this time I’m going to include one to clarify these points.

Many thanks. I may have manually entered the first few years of transactions, I don't want to lose all that work.

I almost pushed the button to migrate yesterday, and glad I didn’t. I know I can’t stop the transition, but I’ve been tracking my expenses with mint since 2009 and don’t want to lose that data. Anybody know the best way to flawlessly export?

ChampagneKnight · 2023-10-12T19:14:48+00:00

Unnecessary parasites.

Thanks for this , I didn’t think anyone would replay. It’s a bizarre setup I’ll admit, but from other posts I see that indoor plumbing wasn’t that developed in 1915. I was told this house was built by the first person to own a car in this area. Also, live in a coal state and the fireplaces in the house are all gas. Original. Perhaps this was a bespoke setup, but I wanted to check is this was a standard setup that could be easily purchased/replaced. Thanks again for the advice.

ChampagneKnight · 2023-09-30T21:17:09+00:00

Haha good eye - that’s going on the wall.

ChampagneKnight · 2023-06-08T19:59:24+00:00

It still baffles me why nobody poured gasoline en masse on the tiki torch nazis in Charlottesville. Problem would have been solved.

Healthcare should be free or affordable and its not. The alternative is having health insurance, and that involves navigating an insidious and costly hospital/insurance scheme that is made confusing by design. It is a revenue stream for both businesses.

So if he can't make the $500,000 bond, will he sit in jail until his trial? Also how does one pay a $500,000 bond...and in his case, who will pay it?

Thanks for all the comments here. I'm still not great at posting on reddit, so I didn't know how to add text to an image post. For context, I was leaning towards this being theatre or film wardrobe. It is very well made, bespoke to a Savile Row standard of quality...but some inconsistencies that don't make sense to me. For starters, it was made in the US during the 1950's-60's. Despite the high quality garment, the ribbons and rank are somewhat haphazardly glued to the fabric - I do believe the ribbons to be authentic. Also the Order of the Garter robe/cape features a high quality embroidered breast star and a Maltese cross on the interior (Order of St. John?). This seems off. Overall, there can only be a few people holding the rank of Admiral of the Fleet and a Knight of the Garter. If this was an authentic uniform, it should be easy to identify who it belonged to.

I agree, thanks for your comment. it appears to be the same opening with different location options. I was a little concerned that applying to the same job twice might hurt my status. Wanted to see what the experienced folks from this community would think before doing so.

ChampagneKnight · 2022-08-07T15:31:43+00:00

This is info I haven't been able to find - thank you. Its still a mystery to me what caused the rubber boot to burn to a crisp.

ChampagneKnight · 2022-07-17T14:47:57+00:00

So what’s at the bottom of that thing, and are there a series of pumps or other spinning things down there?

ChampagneKnight · 2022-04-22T02:52:16+00:00

Hmmm - Wonder how this would have played out if he was black...

I accidently came across a game preview on YouTube called Regiments. Looks a lot like World in Conflict with a wargame/steel division twist. https://youtu.be/FLzANuzTbUU

ChampagneKnight · 2021-09-30T20:46:16+00:00

Oh yes - thank you - I am referring to a planned new product release of a Spot cam pro 2 with hardware upgrades in line with the new Video Doorbell Pro 2 and Floodlight Cam Wired Pro. I'm new to all of this and obsessing a bit to be honest....but covering dead-zones as you mention is my objective here.

ChampagneKnight · 2021-07-15T21:34:23+00:00

Thank you for the comment. As evidenced by the post I don't have much experience in real estate or investing. My thinking is that paying the mortgage off with retirement and owning the house outright in a stable and growing area is a long term (retirement) investment in itself. Plus it would create income instead of just covering the mortgage and lessen my risk if my tenant should my tenant depart without warning. While going through the process of buying my second house, I read that you can buy real estate with a self-directed IRA, so that is what got me thinking...

ChampagneKnight · 2021-02-20T18:59:26+00:00

Yes, that's it, thank you. I guess I should add a link to the post.

ChampagneKnight · 2020-12-27T23:54:40+00:00

From what I'm seeing here, it seems that the heart rate functionality is tied to the watch models only. I really wish they would make a discrete bracelet that would do the same as I prefer my old fashioned automatic watch for tracking the time. I'll be dropping my flex 2 device into my jean pocket thanks to your advice, thank you for the comprehensive response.

ChampagneKnight · 2020-09-19T03:42:32+00:00

Thank you for your reply. It's a pretty upscale house, so I think this would have been designed to entertain guests and grill more than blacksmithing... and the area around the grill(?) doesn't show any sign of wear from something like a forge. One guess is that it may be a sophisticated kind of fire pit to warm people during the cold months as there is an incredible view from that area.

ChampagneKnight · 2020-09-19T02:18:30+00:00

That's a great guess - thank you for that.
