Neil Armstrong dies at 82

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

He grew up like 20 minutes away from here, and they have a big weird museum that looks like a moon there. I should go put a flower on the top of it.

Neil Armstrong made a milestone, by being the first person to touch down on the moon. I don't know much about him personally, but I'm sure he was a pretty good guy. :) May he be remembered in the days to come.

Yeah, but I don't preface statements with "Even though you're *nationality*," ...it comes off as derogatory.

Yeah, a bit later, I realized I probably shouldn't have said that. Not the most mature thing to say.

They're having a "Wink At The Moon" ceremony tonight at his museum. \:D/

There will be a blue moon the night of his memorial service. Quite fitting.

I should film a documentary of "Top goes to the Neil Armstrong Air and Space Museum, sees stuff, then goes home."

I have been wanting to go again for a while so I suppose the passing of Armstrong is as good a time as any!
