| Guaranteed to make you smile..... especially
| since it's a true story.
|
| On July 20, 1969, as commander of the Apollo
| 11 lunar module, Neil Armstrong was the first person
| to set foot on the moon.
|
| His first words after stepping on the moon,
| "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for
| mankind," were televised to earth and heard by
| millions.
|
| But just before he reentered the lander, he
| made the enigmatic remark "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky."
|
| Many people at NASA though 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, Florida, 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 died, so Neil Armstrong felt he
| could answer the question.
|
| In 1938 when he was a kid in a small midwest
| town, he was playing baseball with a friend in the
| backyard.
|
| His friend hit the ball, which landed in his
| neighbor's yard by the bedroom windows.
|
| His neighbors were Mr. and 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!"
