I'm not familiar with Dana Gould's routine, but Eddie Izzard had a pretty good one in his Dress To Kill stand up (available on DVD and well worth it IMO).

(i just spent several minutes trying to type some of it out, and realized that not only was I massacring it, but it's just not as funny unless you hear it with an English accent coming from a transvestite.  So go spend $12 on the DVD!) :)

  I just thought it went on too long. it's also very similar to an old
  (and I think much funnier) bit by Dana Gould. He was talking about the
  line "one small step." and how it was written for Armstrong.  A lot of
  stuff about a crack NASA squad of poets locked in a room so that we
  didn't have to hear "Holy shit!  The Moon!" on the first landing.  It's
  a hilarious bit (off of his "FunHouse" album).

  That being said the video was well-done - but the joke was in the first
  10 seconds and it went on and on.  ;^)

  This may surprise some folks, considering my off-the-wall humor, but I
  didn't like this at all ...
