It’s pretty amazin’ what she can do with a quarter

From my daily calendar:

“The practice of putting women on pedestals began to die out when it was discovered that they could give orders better from there.”

Betty Grable, she of the expensively insured gams

For the uninitiated, Betty was the #1 pinup girl during WWII. Her legs were so famous her movie studio insured them for $1,000,000 with Lloyds of London. 

My personal favorite of Ms. Grable’s films is How To Marry A Millionaire with Marilyn Monroe and Lauren Bacall.

Check it out – it’s a delightful comedy. Just ask my mom.
