Help Wanted
A
local business was looking for office help, so they put a sign
in their window saying "HELP WANTED. Must be able to type,
must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are an
Equal Opportunity Employer." A short time afterward, a dog
trotted up to the window, saw the sign and went inside. He looked
at the receptionist and wagged his tail, then walked over to the
sign, looked at it and whined.
Getting the idea, the receptionist got the office manager. The
office manager looked at the dog and was surprised, to say the
least. However, the dog looked determined, so he led him into
the office. Inside, the dog jumped up on the chair and stared
at the manager. The manager said, "I can't hire you. The
sign says you have to be able to type."
The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and proceeded to type
out a perfect letter. He took out the page and trotted over to
the manager and gave it to him, then jumped back on the chair.
The manager was stunned, but he told the dog, "The sign also
says you have to be good with a computer."
The dog jumped down again and went to the computer. The dog proceeded
to demonstrate his expertise with various programs, producing
a sample spreadsheet and database and presenting them to the manager.
By this time the manager was totally dumbfounded. He looked at
the dog and said, "I realize that you are a very intelligent
dog and have some interesting abilities. However, I *still* can't
give you the job."
The dog jumped down and went to a copy of the sign and put his
paw on the part about being an Equal Opportunity Employer. The
manager said, "Yes, but the sign *also* says that you have
to be bilingual." The dog looked him straight in the eye
and said, "Meow."

A True Story
On
July 20, 1969, as commander of the Apollo 11 Lunar Module, Neil
Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon.
His first words after stepping on the moon, "That's one small
step for a man, one giant leap for mankind", were televised
to Earth and heard by millions.
But just before he reentered the lander, he made the enigmatic
remark: "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky."
Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning
some rival Soviet Cosmonaut. However, upon checking, there
was no Gorsky in either the Russian or American space programs.
Over the years many people questioned Armstrong as to what the
"Good luck Mr. Gorsky" statement meant, but Armstrong
always just smiled.
On July 5, 1995, in Tampa Bay, Florida, while answering questions
following a speech, a reporter brought up the 26 year old question
to Armstrong. This time he finally responded. Mr. Gorsky
had died and so Neil Armstrong felt he could answer the question.
In 1938 when he was a kid in a small Midwest town, he was playing
baseball with a friend in the backyard. His friend hit a
fly ball, which landed in his neighbor's yard by the bedroom windows.
His neighbors were Mr. and Mrs. Gorsky. As he leaned down to pick
up the ball, young Armstrong heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr.
Gorsky. "Sex! You want sex?! You'll get
sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!"
