Loved it. David Hasselhoff also is known as a singer in Germany, I saw him in concert twice at the time.

I forgot to say, I also was able to study all the buttons from the real K.I.T.T.!

Being around the same age as you, I remember the collapse of the Berlin Wall and you sharing your experience (thank you) really drove home what it meant for you and, potentially, so many others.

Back then, I didn't appreciate the significance of the event. Perspective would come later in college after choosing poli-sci as a major. Your story made me smile as a direct example of what happens when we dismantle both the figurative and literal barriers between cultures. This is a concept that is currently under assault by people determined to turn the clock backward in my country (and abroad) serving as a source of frustration for many...but I digress.

Nice job, I'm glad you kept your handmade memento of history....and, yes, I'm quite familiar with Hasselhof's (The Hof!) singing career and popularity in Germany!
