Moon Shot

Neil Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon. His
first words after stepping out 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 re-entered the lunar lander, 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 5 July 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 and 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 a fly ball which landed in his
neighbor's yard by the 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 ---- "Sex! You want sex?! You'll get sex when the kid
next door walks on the moon!"
