There are going to be 366 days in 2008 - how neat?
Today is leap day (is that what we call it?). Leap years occurs every four years. This takes place to synchronize the calendar year with the solar year.
Here are some Leap Year facts that I found....
* There is a 1 in 1500 chance that you'll be born on leap day.
* About 187000 Americans celebrate leap day as their birthday. There are about 4 million world wide.
* The Egyptians came up with leap year.
* Many famous people were born on leap day - including Pope Paul III, Antonio Sabato Jr & Ja Rule.
Enjoy your leap day!
