Donzi38ZR - I don't know why the pics of Knocky and Mr K hit me the way they did, but the first one absolutely floored me. Mr K leaning against the car that way told me he was perfectly relaxed and at ease talking with Knocky. And, of course, Knocky's stance was as you would always see. I only spent time around Knocky for a couple of months, but he always put me at ease. Does anyone know if Knocky is still with us? Respectfully - Steve Sirois
Here's another unseen image from my library for the cause.....
