"Houston. Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has Landed."
Seen minor amounts of money change hands on that one.
You get away with 'The Eagle has landed." and the explantion.
It's such a great pity that the 'Good luck, Mr Gorsky' tale is a myth.
That would have been brilliant.
For those who have never heard this one.
Armstrong said something like "Good luck, Mr Gorsky." whilst on the moon.
The tale is when Armstrong was a boy he heard his neighbours
(Mr & Mrs Gorsky) arguing about sex.
And she said he was not getting any till that little kid next door walked on the Moon.

Maybe we can't.
