Happy Birthday, Neil Armstrong!

  • The first man on the moon, Neil Armstrong, turns 80 years old today. Happy birthday, Mr. Armstrong!

    Neil Armstrong has been in the news lately — for example, according to the Austrian Independent he’s giving an interview on television tonight. That’s rare. Armstrong is famously shy, the antiBuzz Aldrin when it comes to making personal appearances.

Now he and his partner are facing up to four years in prison — for a signature that’s only worth a thousand bucks (at most).
