Good Bye Neil Armstrong

Neil Armstrong died today, he was 82. The world lost a great man.

I know that there's that quote out there everyone seems to think sums up Armstrong's life...you know, that giant leap one....but I always preferred this one:

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small. -Neil Armstrong
Rest in peace Neil.
