In 2024, the United States celebrates 50 years since women gained the right to open credit cards and other lines of credit in…

This is a history blog… if that’s not your thing, here are the boobs. Let’s move on…For those of us who breathe with our mouths shut, history is (by definition) made every day… and by “history” I don’t mean fleeting gaffes like this year’s Olympic opening ceremony, because even if it set a new standard for awful entertainment, that abomination will likely be forgotten by the time the Olympics are over, and its existence will ultimately amount to little more than a couple of silly mentions every four years.
