Good luck Mr. Gorsky.



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 com
traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control. Just
before he re-entered the lander, however, he made the enigmatic 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 that landed in the front of his
neighbor's bedroom window. His neighbors were Mr. & Mrs. Gorsky. As he
leaned down to pick up the ball, young Armstrong heard Mrs. Gorsky
shouting at Mr. Gorsky, "Oral sex! You want oral sex?! You'll get oral
sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!"
