Sam Kinison: To the Russians: “GO GET OUR FLAG!!!” That whole bit was funny.

Phew! What a relief that the Decepticons haven’t arrived yet.

Seriously, besides the exhaust of the departing lunar module, what could possibly move those flags?

Move? Who knows. But that doesn't mean they have to still be there. Between the harsh ultraviolet light and temperatures of the lunar surface, it's surprising they are still there. The sun destroys things on Earth, it most certainly would do so on the moon.

To me, that guy is living proof that aliens do exist. And his hair style is a testament to their sense of humor. :=)

I was thinking the same thing!

A new stanza for the National Anthem!

Now today you can see by the sun’s burning light
What so boldly we staked ‘midst the twilight’s vast gleaming
Those broad stripes and bright stars on the moon’s airless blight
On the view-screens we watched were so steadfastly beaming
From Apollo’s first dare to the last yet sent there
Still give proof through the age that our flags are still there!
But on earth does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

There is NO SUIT made by NASA that can contain that much crazy.
