Happy New Years Eve!
Stay safe tonight everyone!
I’m just at my Italian neighbor’s house on the Space Coast with my family, enjoying funny stories and pictures…and chocolate cookies. :)

Michael Collins: Apollo 8, Houston.
Frank Borman: Go ahead, Houston.
Michael Collins: We've received a number of congratulatory telegrams in the past few hours, and if you don't mind I'd like to read a couple to you.
Frank Borman: That sounds good, go ahead.
Michael Collins: Here's one that reads: "Congratulations on one of the greatest achievements made by man. You have turned into reality the dream of Robert Goddard". It's signed Charles Lindbergh and Ann Morrow Lindbergh. This one is addressed to Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders. "Good luck and godspeed". And it's from Lyndon Baines Johnson. And you got one from a Mrs. Valerie Pringle. I'm sure that's not a name that any of you recognize. It's just a telegram that one of the public affairs officials at NASA picked up because he liked it. Mrs. Pringle writes, very simply, "You saved 1968".
