I am constantly amazed at how many people cannot grasp the simple concept of an additional day every four years. I turn 40 today, and the people who can't figure out 40/4 = 10... it blows my mind.

So British women, enjoy your proposals. Black History month gets another day, but still has to settle for the shortest month. And if you wear a non-digital watch with the date, you don't have to reset it until tomorrow!

A funny coincidence about leap year: in my freshman college class there were 3 of us. It was a small college. In our French class with 7 people, all 3 of the leap year birthdays were there. Our names: Sandi, Mandy and Andy. Two of us had the same last name. Like a weird rare birthday magnetic energy pulled us all together.

My great-grandmother was a leap day baby... she loved playing it up! 
My birthday was yesterday and almost every time I tell people it's Feb. 28, they say "oooh almost a leap year baby!" and I have to explain that I wasn't born in a leap year, and that leap year only occurs every 4 years.

My boss's wife is due any day and while he is praying it is not born today, I kind of hope it is

I think it's awesome.

Now don't freak out, but soon you're going to start to grow hair in strange places.  And your voice will start to sound funny.  And you'll constantly be getting...  I mean you won't be able to control when you get...  Just don't raise your hand in class to go to the board.

Happy birthday!

Selamat Ulang Tahun (that's in Indonesian) to Special Quadrennial and Coincidence Boy!

I think about you lots lately for some reason ... eating/veggies, Steps, Bible Study ... I like your style.

I love those little coincidence things ... one time I was in an advanced biology lab that had six girls and a female professor (also a small college), which is unusual enough for coed (but you do get those odd sortings at small colleges) ... we were doing blood type and antigen testing and using our own blood, and it emerged that ALL SEVEN of us were AB+. The odds against that sort of thing happening ...

Yeah, I just about fell over. We'd like to think that as a couple, we're Phil and Claire. But honestly, we come off more Mitchell and Cam a lot of the time.

I like the 25% of my wishes comment, and also thanks BFD for the heads up.

Thanks to all for the well-wishes. Now I can say I will finish an ironman before my next birthday. I get four more years after all.
