How do you guys, as KR fans, see KR as a part of your life?
I mean, you have the KITT GPS, you dress like the hoff, you ride a trans am, or do you talk to your car,...?
Maybe some of you park your car in a truck every night? 8)

Well...............When I get in awkward situations...I talk to my watch like "Kitt come get me buddy" Its a joke but I think sometimes people think Im a bit mad :D

I was totally sane until I got mixed up in The KRO crime syndicate....

Well I do try to remember a few things that Knight rider tried to teach.Such as De nada means your welcome in Spanish,the Spanish Michael spoke in Blind Spot.Herman Mellville is the author of Moby Dick and the first line is call me Ishmael.I probably learned the first line from Married With Children.Antithesis means opposite.Their's probably more i'm forgetting to mention.

To be honest, I also learnt some things on KR e.g. I learnt some CB language (Citizens' Band radio)
In the episode Knight moves (just after my favorite White Bird) KITT gets a "10-33" what means a cry for help.
The other famous CB language is : That's a big 10-4 !
Anybody knows what it means 10-4 and where it is coming from? I also heard it a lot in the dukes of hazzard

Yup, KR is a part of my life too. :) I take VERY good care of my car and treat her more like a person than a machine. I was like that with my last car, too (Dryden). I name my cars. My current car is Suse. In fact I do hope some day to put in a computer and make her talk. :)

I HAVE to watch KR every week, it seems. LOL!

And then there's KRO and the Podcasts. LOTS of fun here! :) And fanfic I write, the Knight iRD web site (click on the web icon link under my avatar).

As for everyday, even at work I have a bit of KR with me. My laptop is named KITT. (My other laptop which I use as a back up is named KARR).

No escaping it! :)

Well I don’t dress up or have a KITT car.. unless you count my KRO shirt and SHADO. But somehow that doesn’t stop people from knowing that I’m KR obsessed. My KRO addiction might have very well surpassed my KR addiction. I’m sure I’m single-handedly crashing it’s server by leaving it open in multiple tabs and multiple browsers for hours on end. I actually can’t think of anything right now that KR has taught me. But let’s see, KRO taught me what RSS, CSS, BBC, H.264, MIRC oh and I’m sure lots of other things are. :good: And those are all helpful things to know in life.

I guess I could say too Knight Rider is part of my life too. Became a fan already in the 1980's when it was first time on tv, right from the Pilot episode :)
I check every day this site & KRUK for the latest news of Knight Rider world, have every TOS episode on VHS & DVD and seems that I need to watch a random episode or two every week too :) I still keep looking the ERTL KITT & KARR models almost daily basis, cant' get enough of them LOL I also have for instance KR Legacy book and Stu Phillips KR music cd in my KR collection.

In the early morning or late night, if the weather is clear and not cloudy, when the sun rises or is setting, the colour of the sky goes purple and the purple coloured lightning makes whe buildings, cars, everything look kind of futuristic, it always remindes me from Knight Rider intro :D

I don't name my computer or car anything, my current 1:1 car isn't anything like KITT at all (2001 Nissan Micra, good for fuel economy), well the RDS radio have scrolling text panel with digital numbers & letters similar to KITT's text message display (Turbine, Calibrate, etc.) but the colour is wrong.
I also have 3,6 Gt of all kind of KR stuff on my computer collected during the years I've had internet at home. Mostly pics, videos, music, sounds, etc., I've started saving stuff from this new KR tv-series also & looking forward to see it, so the addiction continues probably as long as I live :)
