This won’t be a very long post, but I just heard something on the news and HAD to post about it.

Guess what is turning 50 years old this weekend…more specifically on May 9, 2010?

Nope, that’s not it. Nope not that either.

The Birth Control Pill turns 50 years old on May 9th…

Yes, the birth control pill turns 50 on Mother’s Day!

Since I hate to post just to point that out, here is an interesting link to a PBS page that goes through the history of birth control. Not just the pill, but origins and use of other methods too, all the way back to The Bible.
