Happy Leap Year!

Today is the 29th day of February, a date that comes only once every four years - in periods also known as "Leap Years." How does this happen, you wonder? The 366th day of the year is the result of the fact that the earth actually takes 365 days and six hours to orbit the sun! Thereby, every four years an additional day accumulates (6 hours x 4 years = 24 hours) - or at least that's how we decide to divide it. As rare as the date alone is, rarer still is a February 29 that falls on a Friday. This will happen only 14 times in 400 years - approximately three times in a lifetime. So enjoy your day - and relish it. Friday, February 29 won't occur for about another 30 years!
