"Big Brass Balls Dipped In A Layer Of Nofearnium"..Godspeed Neil Armstrong

Reader Buckaroo suggested that title of one of previous posts would be fitting of Neil Armstrong.
 

I can only imagine the courage it took to get strapped into a rocket, propelled by a controlled explosion and sent to the moon.

  2. Not to mention that the rocket was built by the lowest bidder on a government contract...

  3. And with a computer control that was less sophisticated and powerful than an iPhone.

    I noted that NBC headlined the loss as being that of Neil Young rather than Neil Armstrong. What is in their heads? Flashbacks and not much else.
