Back in 2000 I lived in Loveland, OH which is just north of Cincinnati, OH. There used to be an old fashioned barber shop on Loveland-Madeira road.

I walked into the barber shop and was greeted by the barber and told to take a seat. There were two other men in the shop. One was in the chair and getting his hair cut and the other was reading a newspaper and I was unable to see his face at all. The barber finished with the guy in the chair and looked over at the man reading the newspaper and said:

"Neil you're up."

The man closed his newspaper and laid on the chair next to him...

And I found myself looking at the first man that walked on the moon.

I completely blew every circuit breaker in my brain. Somehow though I managed to keep my composure and didn't turn into a complete idiot. As he got his hair cut we talked about mundane things, never once talking about space flight, although we did discuss aviation. At the time I was a skydiver and he actually had some questions about it. He told me that he had a ride under a parachute... I replied, yeah I've seen that video.

And that is how I met and had a conversation with Neil Armstrong.
