You remind me of a very interesting day in my life—the day after the moon landing.

I watched on TV the night before—and I was so exicted.

We had reached the moon!

I was visiting my grandmother’s house and I asked her “Grandma, Did you watch it?” “Man has walked on the moon!”

Grandma (who up until that moment in her life had always been known for her pleasant disposition and infinite tolerance for the idiocy of her grandchildren) looked me straight in the eye and said: “We did not land on the moon.”

And, after she dropped that bomb she hit me with one more (that was the best advice I ever received from _anyone_ _ever_ in my whole life):

“Don’t believe anything you see on TV.”

Larry Storch from F Troop was a neighbor when we lived in California when I was growing up. He said something interesting to my father and I once. “Nothing happens on television, the movies or radio by accident.”

LOL! I seem to remember I was bobbing around in the ocean on a destroyer on that occasion.
