...holding a crowbar in one arm...
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 serveral remarks, usual communication 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 Russian or American space programs.
Over the years many people questioned Armstrong as to what "Good luck Mr. Gorsky" statement meant, but Armstrong always just smiled.
On July 5, 1995 in Tamp Bay FL, while answering questions follwing 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 base ball with a friend in the backyard. His friend hit a fly ball, which landed in front of his neighbor's 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!"
