Aldrin pokes nut...
2002-09-10
Link is via Instapundit...
Beverly Hills police said they are investigating a complaint that Apollo 11 astronaut Edwin E. "Buzz" Aldrin struck a man in the face Monday after the man asked Aldrin to swear on a Bible that he had been to the moon. Detectives said they responded to a disturbance Monday at the Luxe Hotel on Rodeo Drive and took a report from Bart Sibrel, 37, who said he was battered by the 72-year-old astronaut.
When I was 37, I probably wouldn't have admitted that a man twice my age could beat me up. Of couse, since I've been about six, I've known better than to give him reason to...
Aldrin, who took part in the 1969 lunar mission, was gone when police arrived about 4:30 p.m. and was not interviewed, said Beverly Hills Police Lt. Joe Lombardi. Sibrel said he does not believe Aldrin or anyone else has ever walked on the moon.
Guess we're all entitled to our opinions, even nut cases. Personally, I'm always careful not to go too close to the edge of the earth, so I don't fall off...

#3  Was Mr. Sibrel wearing his tinfoil hat at the time?

Buzz Aldrin kicking his ass - reminds me of Bob Barker kicking Adam Sandler around in 'Happy Gilmore', lol.

#2  Oops, my mistake. It's a site that debunks the nut in question. Still, it's interesting reading.
