I'm sure most have heard by now but I just wanted to take a moment because it's very important to me.

I can't begin to explain how devastating this is. I wanted to be an Astronaut when I was a kid and even though there were other nauts (Gagarin and Glenn were important to me too) Armstrong was THE astronaut. The minute you hear the word 'Astronaut' he's the one you think of. A true and absolute 20th Century Icon. I haven't been this affected by a celebrity death...in...maybe ever. By all accounts a great man.

RIP

Well said Jhereko. It indeed feels like the end of an entire era with his passing

Louis Armstrong never was using steroids to play the trumpet on the moon.

Probably not the time but this interview with Buzz Aldrin (second man on the moon) is hilarious.
