there are two nights that i remember as a kid...
1. the night Jim mckay came on tv to announce that the israeli wrestling team was killed by terrorists in munich in 1972
2. the night that man walked on the moon on july 20th 1969
both of those nights, i walked into my parents room, woke them from their sleep to give them the news..
the night that Neil Armstrong walked on the moon was amazing to me. I could not believe that the US could send a man to the moon and he could walk on the surface..
it was an innocent time where the US was the greatest kindest nation in the world and in the middle of the cold war, the US reigned supreme...
