Little Known Facts
Legend has it that when Jim Lovell, John Swigert, and Fred Haise got back to Houston, the shouted to Mission Control, "We owe you guys a beer." And Gene Kranz, shouted out, "Or three." Thus the phrase, I Owe you a beer, or three was invented and copywritered by "Cap Com.
But this was later disproved when:
Oliver Stone said, "I have it on good authority that the words, 'a beer or three', were overheard on the Grassy Knoll on 11/22/63."
When Jimmy Hoffa is found, there will be a note in his pocket that says, "IOU a Beer or 3" --Fitz.
Ancient scrolls recently uncovered near the Euphrates during the current unpleasantness in Iraq, reveal that upon hearing of the birth of the Christ Child, three Wise Men, knelt, and said, Lord thank you for the gift of Your Son, "We owe you, "a beer or three."
So, that Apollo 13 shit is just a bunch of CRAP, (just like other false rumors and cute innuendo swirling around the use of this phrase) and it is not copywritered, so ANYBODY can use it.
