From the NASA files:
Be careful of what you say, you might be changing the history of the world.
 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 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, 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  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!"
True story.
