The Principle of the Highest First

I went up to the Moon to visit the old Apollo 11 landing site again. This time I ran into the ghost of Neil Armstrong.

I said, “Are you taking the opportunity for another walk on the Moon?”

The ghost of Neil Armstrong said, “I wouldn’t say I’m taking this. When I died, I suddenly found myself here.”

I said, “Maybe when you die you automatically revisit the area of your greatest significance.”

The ghost of Neil Armstrong said, “Where do you think you would go when you die?”

I said, “To revisit the time I finally beat my dad in ping pong.”
