I knew that the bikini was named after some islands but I did not know that it was 60 years ago. That’s pretty old.

Janet, even though you are a comment spammer, you at least worked for it and tailored your spam to my blog, so I am going to let you.

My comment is that I have
always loved the bikini &
if it is 60 yrs old well
I am 63 yrs old so it does say something about
our generation–ps–I really prefer nudity but
that is another subject.
