{Wacky Wednesday} Happy Leap Day, giveaways & early releases

Some interesting Leap Day facts (courtesy of examiner.com)

The following fun facts about leap year were collected from Leapyearday.com and Womens-Place.com:

1. Your chances of being born on a leap day are approximately 1 in 1500.
2. There are about 187,000 people in the US and 4 million people in the world who were born on Leap Day.
3. People born on Leap Day are called leaplings.
4. In most states, leaplings must wait until March 1st to be eligible for any age-specific privileges (ages 16, 18, 21).
5. Every now and then we have to skip a regularly scheduled leap year. This happens during specific century years.
6. Century years are not leap years unless they can be evenly divided by 400. The years 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not leap years, but 1600 and 2000 were.
7. When 2/29 is entered into a majority of websites it comes up as an invalid birth date.
8. US Presidential elections and Summer Olympic Games are both held every four years and occur during leap years.
9. In Greece, people believe it is bad luck to get married in a leap year. On the other hand, in Ireland, women can propose to a man.
10. The next February 29th will come around again in 1,460 days.
