Looks like the good Doctor Aldrin has gone from landing lunar modules to raising loonie nodules!

Is there any explanation why this Sibrel character is fixated on Aldrin? There were other astronauts who went to the moon, why is he so obsessed with Aldrin?

Perhaps he saw the Monty Python episode? ;)

Seriously, no idea. Perhaps he has the most interesting name.

BTW, a funny thing- someone apparantly registered this Sibrel character's domain name and, well, click the link to see what they put up- http://www.bartsibrel.com/

Don't worry, he's tried this with other Apollo astronauts.

I believe that he was fired from his job as a part time videographer in Nashville when he was busted for trespassing on Neil Armstrong's property.

Ah, but guv'nor, the California Sibrel always prefers kippin' on its back. Remarkable bird, id'nit, guv'nor? Lovely plumage.

I saw the entire video. Sibrel was asking for everything he got.

Nice to know a complete jerk can still be handled with a simple punch in the nose!

Pinin for his rubber room? What kind of talk is that? How come he fell flat on 'is back the moment I socked him in the face? ;)

The threat of lawsuits has diminished that possibility, but it's not dead...it's erm, pining for the fjords. ;)

OK, I'll bite. How can you tell a male gumby from a female gumby?

A male gumby is played by a bloke, a female gumby is played by a woman. ;)

Ah, well here are two Gumbys:

Note the cloth tied on the head, the glasses, the moustache, and the rather dim expression. ;)
