  2. If that doesn't define "The Knack" I don't know what does! It's not "dangerously close", it's a full on French Kiss! hi!

  4. Yea, it looks a lot like The Knack, but we have to remember that Dilbert's doctor made his diagnosis only when Dilbert's mom revealed that the boy had built "a ham radio set."

    As for the "circuit benders," well, I think they are even further from Knack status.
