Here is a TRUE anecdote about Neil Armstrong...
When Apollo Mission Astronaut Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon,
he not only gave his famous "one small step for man, one giant leap for
mankind" statement but followed it by several remarks, usual communication
traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control. Just before he
re-entered the lander, however, he made this remark "Good luck Mr.
Gorsky."
Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning
some
rival Soviet Cosmonaut. However, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in
either the Russian or American space programs. Over the years many
people questioned Armstrong as to what the "Good luck Mr. Gorsky"
statement meant, but Armstrong always just smiled.
On July 5, 1995 in Tampa
Bay FL, while answering questions following a speech, a reporter brought
up the 26 year old question to Armstrong. This time he finally
responded. Mr. Gorsky had finally died and so Neil Armstrong felt he could answer
the question.
When he was a kid, he was playing baseball with a friend in
the backyard. His friend hit a fly ball, which landed in the front of his neighbor's
bedroom windows. His neighbors were Mr. & Mrs. Gorsky.
As he leaned
down to pick up the ball, young Armstrong heard Mrs.Gorsky shouting at Mr.
Gorsky. "Sex! You want sex?! You'll get sex when the kid next door walks on
the moon.
